"True Story", Jean-Michel's upcoming album for Dreyfus, features his new trio with Boris Kozlov (b) & Billy Hart (d), and will be released early 2010. The trio will be touring during the spring & summer of 2010.

In 2009-10, Jean-Michel will be performing with his new trio featuring Boris Kozlov & Billy Hart - he will also be performing solo piano, and with the Hoenig Pilc Project, co-led by Jean-Michel & drummer Ari Hoenig.

Jean-Michel is teaching at NYU, and is giving private lessons (all instruments), workshops, clinics & masterclasses. He is currently working on a pedagogical book called "Method to my Madness - The Essence of Improvisation".

A new septet called "Big One" is also in the works.
