Nikol Bóková is a trained classical pianist. She performs regularly as a soloist with the leading Czech orchestras and is now releasing INNER PLACE, her debut album recorded with traditional jazz piano trio instrumentation.

While her usual repertoire ranges from baroque to contemporary music, INNER PLACE is influenced by jazz, minimalism and, in some respects, popular music. "Lately I've fallen in love with the sound of the classical jazz trio and realized that it's the direction I want to take. I think of my music as 'songs' in which I can directly tell a story. Unlike classical music, I see this as a more immediate, in some ways simpler way to express my feelings. In doing so, I don't feel the need to refer to a specific genre."

Nikol's compositions are perfectly polished miniatures, simple in form but echoing the harmonic and melodic complexity of classical piano literature. Indeed, Bóková's playing, defined with her brilliant technique and dynamic keyboard touch, is unique in the world of jazz piano. The album INNER PLACE is characterized by a great compositional and interpretative maturity.
