WVC TRiO + 1
Live at Wawasan Open University Theatre 1, 7th June 2009 Sunday, 7.00pm

In the fall of 2004 at West Virginia University in the US, the WVC Trio was originally formed as a class for three music majors: Adam Osmianski, Cher Siang Tay, and Jon Cavendish. The three immediately noticed that they had musical chemistry and began holding extra rehearsals and continuing the class semester after semester, building a very large book of repertoire containing original material, and the groups own unique arrangements of jazz standards and rock tunes. Drawing inspiration from the great trios of the past like Oscar Peterson and Bill Evans, and today's modern counterparts such as Brad Mehldau and The Bad Plus, the WVC Trio has developed as sound of their own. In the summer of 2008 the trio toured Malaysia and Singapore for 7 weeks, and recorded their first studio album. This spring sees Adam's return to Malaysia for another tour, while Vincent Ong from GruvAvenue stepped into the bass chair. To complete the +1 formula, we have Malaysian Man in New York Julian Chan on Saxophone.
WVC TRiO +1 will present a full concert in KLPac covering varieties of styles and premiering many brand new original compositions penned by members of the group. Experience this vibrant and original concert on June 2nd 2009 Tuesday 8.30pm, at KL Pac only.


Tay Cher Siang

Tay Cher Siang began studying jazz as a teenager in Melaka, Malaysia after learning classical piano for a time. Tay later went to United States to study with Dr. James Miltenberger, and Prof. Paul Scea at West Virginia University. Here Cher Siang earned a Bachelors degree in Music Performance, and a Masters of Music in Jazz Pedagogy. While at WVU, Tay was a graduate assistant to Prof. Scea which gave him the opportunity to direct the school big band, small ensembles, as well as teach classes in jazz improvisation. Also at WVU, Cher Siang won the WVU Young Artist competition, and received the HERF Top-Off Award and the Valerie Candy Award.
Throughout his stay in the US Tay performed regularly as a soloist and with many different big bands, trios, and orchestras. Not only a performer, Cher Siang composes and arranges music for various ensembles.
Tay currently resides in Kuala Lumpur where he teaches at UCSI, the University of Malaya and running his own studio. He is an active musician on the KL music scene, performing with Boplicity, GruvAvenue, Rizal Soliano Band and his own band WVC TRiO, as well as a number of vocalists. Cher Siang has performed concerts and given seminars throughout Asia, most recently with the WVC Trio, and the much acclaimed Unit Asia.

Julian Chan
Julian Chan has been playing the saxophone professionally since the age of 21 after studying accounting in Perth, Australia. Since returning to Malaysia he has studied with English saxophonist Greg Lyons, and performed in various musical settings including the 19-piece Emergency Brake Ensemble, The Greg Lyons Nonet, and the funk band Biophonics. Julian continues to be an active performer on the KL music scene, performing with David Gomes, the KL Hardbop Band, Michael Veerapen, and Farid Ali among others, as well as running his own bop group called Boplicity. Not limiting himself to KL, Chan performs at music festivals throughout Southeast Asia and Australia. He is currently pursuing a Masters Degree in Jazz Performance at the Aaron School of Music at Queens College in New York City, USA.
When not playing jazz, Julian is doing session work for various pop artists both at home and abroad. This work has taken him throughout much of Asia, most notably with Taiwanese singer/songwriter Jonathan Lee Zhong Sheng's South East Asian Concert Tour.

Vincent Ong
Vincent Ong began playing bass professionally while at the International College of Music. During this time, Ong formed his own group known as Black Machine. Black Machine was later re-named GruvAvenue, and released their debut album in 2005. When not performing with GruvAvenue, Vincent performs with varying ensembles in hotel lounges, clubs, conferences, and at music festivals throughout Malaysia, the Phillippines and Singapore.

Adam Osmianski
Adam Osmianski studied music from a young age in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. After finishing high school, Adam went to West Virginia University to study with Professor Paul Scea and Al Wrublesky. While at WVU Adam performed in the school big band, small jazz ensembles, percussion ensemble, symphony orchestra, various world music ensembles, and continued to perform in his home town of Pittsburgh. After placing 7th in the nation in the Percussive Arts Society International college tenor drum competition, Adam spent two summers touring the US with the Glassmen Drum and Bugle Corps from Toledo, Ohio. After touring with the Glassmen, Adam was appointed as the Percussion Coordinator and Arranger for WVU's award winning marching band.
Adam earned a Bachelors in Jazz Performance and immediately began work on a Masters in Jazz Pedagogy where he was graduate assistant to Prof. Paul Scea. This gave Adam the opportunity to teach the school's big band, small groups, percussion ensembles, and classes in jazz. While working on his masters, Adam toured China and Malaysia in 2006 with the WVC Trio and the Paul Scea Quintet. Again with Scea's quintet, Adam traveled to Brazil in 2007. After finishing his Masters Degree in 2008, Adam again toured Malaysia and Singapore with the WVC Trio, and performed with Paul Scea's Ra Ensemble at the International Society of Improvised Music Convention in Denver Colorado. Adam's other performing credits include jazz great Joe Negri, and appearing on the David Letterman show with the Cadets Drum and Bugle Corps.
