Friday Night Jazz is an early-profile project led by Toronto-based pianist and composer Robi Botos, a musician whose Roma/Hungarian roots and mentorship under Oscar Peterson have shaped a distinctive voice in contemporary jazz. As the inaugural Jazz Artist-in-Residence at The Royal Conservatory of Music (2022–2025), Botos continues to influence a new generation of players while touring with high-profile ensembles such as the Oscar Peterson Centennial Quartet. This performer page highlights Friday Night Jazz as a key chapter in Botos' career—with a nod to his acclaimed discography, awards, and the 2025 tour footprint across Canada and the United States.
