His impressive resumé includes performances with jazz giants such as Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Bill Evans, Gerry Mulligan, Benny Goodman, Buck Clayton, Marian McPartland, Paul Bley, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Steve Gadd, Tony Williams, Chick Corea and Carli Muñoz. Time Magazine lauded: “Eddie Gómez has the world on his strings”. Eddie Gómez would spend a total of eleven years with Bill Evans Trio which included performances throughout the United States, Europe, and the Orient, as well as dozens of recordings. Two of the Trio’s recordings won Grammy awards.

In addition to working as a studio musician for many famous jazz musicians, he has recorded as a leader for Columbia Records, Projazz and Stretch. Most of his recent recordings as a leader are co-led by jazz pianist Mark Kramer.

Eddie Gomez will be supported at this concert by Hong Kong born guitarist Teriver Cheung, who is making a name for himself on stages around the world including USA, UK, Poland, Singapore, China, Japan, Taiwan, Mexico to name but just a few countries. Currently based in New York, Teriver has played with many world renowned musicians including Eddie Gomez, Bernard Wright, George Garzone, Billy Drummond and Taylor Eigsti.
