Pure voice and elegant jazz piano are in store as a new San Francisco studio presents its first Salon Concert. Lua Hadar, multilingual world jazz vocalist and the Founder and Creative Director of Studio NPG, takes the petite stage in a duo concert with Dr. Jason Martineau: pianist, composer and music director of Hadar's high-octane band, TWIST. TWIST plans a live recording concert at a high-profile venue later this year, and the June 12 Salon Concert at the intimate Studio NPG will give their audience a chance to help create the set list for that recording during a talk-back at the Salon Concert's intermission.

TWIST's producer, Candace Forest, comments, "Studio NPG provides a rare opportunity for the audience to bask in pure music, unencumbered by the bustle of a club setting. The grand piano, Jason's sensitive and inventive playing, Lua's rich voice, and an eclectic song list  it is really musical heaven."  

About the artists:
With a rich voice and a soaring range, Lua Hadar sings jazz influenced by pop, funk, latin and international cabaret, interpreting lyrics in several languages with a charming, swinging delivery. Instantly accessible and truly exotic, she has been molded by exchange experiences in places as diverse as Bali, Russia, Switzerland, Japan, Thailand, France and Italy, inspiring the sophisticated song choices for her band, TWIST, in their signature "jazz without borders." Hadar's Paris debut in July 2009 came on the heels of the successful New York release of her latest CD, Lua Hadar with TWIST, at Broadway's Iridium Jazz Club (stunningsheer beauty she rocked!  Cabaret Scenes, NYC) and her band's international debut at the Bangkok International Festival of Dance & Music. The CD went on to garner raves from around the world, (vivacious brand of jazzinspiredswingingcool - Luna Kafé, Sweden; seductive polished vocal phrasing irresistible - Blast Radio 1386, UK) as well as Radio Top 10 Ratings in the USA. Sold-out appearances in 2009 and 2010 at San Francisco's Rrazz Room, and at New York's landmark Cornelia Street Café debuted her show, French Connection, to acclaim (beyond language, beyond wordspure yearning, perhaps - MS Nieson, All About Jazz). In a May 2010 cultural exchange, she delivered a master class on the Great American Songbook, using French as a language of instruction, and performed in concert with a 12-piece band in Lille, France. Lua opened Studio NPG in October of 2010, in San Francisco's Potrero section. www.luahadar.com

Jason Martineau is an award-winning composer, pianist, arranger, instructor and author, active in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1995. He works with many different idioms and styles, from world fusion and jazz, to avant-garde, industrial, rock, pop, and classical. Jason's sensitive piano stylings range from the passionate to the poetic, drawing from his wide array of musical influences, marked by nuance and evocative expressivity. A pianist for 36 years, he has performed since 1989 at numerous venues in the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, New York, and as Music Director for TWIST at the 10th International Festival of Dance and Music in Bangkok, Thailand. Martineau is a graduate of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and the Manhattan School of Music, and has composed numerous works for orchestra, chamber ensembles, solo piano, and chorus, as well as a full-length musical, multiple film scores, and over 200 songs, both instrumental and vocal. His book on music theory "The Elements of Music," was released October 2008 and is distributed both nationally and internationally. His film scores have been featured in documentaries broadcast on PBS stations around the US since 1998. In 2011 Dr. Martineau joined the faculty at the Academy of Art University, teaching music notation and theory. www.jasonmartineau.com
