Praised by The Wire Magazine and described as having “a refreshing and virtuosic lyricism” by UK Jazz News, Korten has begun building a promising relationship with audiences across the UK as well as mainland Europe, representing bandleaders like Zoh Amba, Milena Casado, Simon Moullier, Or Bareket and London’s own Alex Hitchcock. Informed by long stints with Tyshawn Sorey, Melissa Aldana and other luminaries, Korten released his debut album ‘Canopy’ in 2025 to wide critical acclaim. Acknowledged by The New York Times, DownBeat, JazzTimes, WNYC and other outlets for a charismatic, vulnerable improvisatory approach, Korten seeks to nurture a deeper multidirectional experience between artists and listeners, and to honor his adopted home among the great Black American Musical art forms.
