Rumi Abe Trio

Japanese pianist and composer Rumi Abe leads a refined, lyrical piano-trio set at Stookey’s Blue Room, drawing on classic-jazz repertoire alongside her original music. Abe began formal training at Yamaha Music School at age four, developed her jazz voice through mentors Fumio Karashima and Josh Nelson, built a prolific performance career in Tokyo, and has been active in the Bay Area scene since relocating to San Francisco in 2024.
