Music fans in Poland are in for a rare treat. This autumn, the Grammy-winning keyboardist and master of improvisation, Cory Henry, is bringing his acclaimed solo concert series “The Solo Experience” to Polish stages. Known for his ability to blend jazz, gospel, soul, and funk into something deeply personal and emotionally charged, Henry is set to deliver an unforgettable evening in Poznań.
Cory Henry’s first-ever Polish concert
Prepare for a night of profound musical intimacy when Cory Henry, the Grammy-winning keyboard virtuoso and genre-blending soul/jazz/gospel artist, makes his long-awaited Polish debut with “The Solo Experience” on 23 November 2025 at 20:00 in Sala Ziemi, Poznań. This isn’t just another concert date on the city’s cultural calendar — it’s a rare chance to witness one of the world’s most gifted keyboardists in a raw and intimate format.
Expect a mixture of innovation and tradition, where improvisation meets storytelling, showcasing both Henry’s technical brilliance and his ability to connect with audiences across genres and generations. For jazz aficionados, soul lovers, gospel enthusiasts, and anyone who cherishes live improvisation, this evening promises to be nothing short of unforgettable.
A concert not to miss: what to expect
This upcoming “The Solo Experience” tour marks the first time Cory Henry will appear in Poland, performing entirely solo in a stripped-back, deeply expressive concert format. Audiences may expect:
- Intimate arrangements and new material, including tracks such as “Let’s Go Fall in Love”, reimagined in his unique voice
- Masterful improvisation, especially on the Hammond B3 organ — an instrument often at the core of his sound
- Selections from his recent work, including material from the “Sing Your Song! As We Fix Our Nation’s Broken Heart” project
- A performance style that marries the spiritual gravitas of gospel with the rhythmic finesse of jazz, funk, and soul
This show promises more than a concert: a musical journey that brings listeners closer to Henry’s inner world — voice, keys, and emotion.
Cory Henry: a career of depth and vision
Cory Henry is not just a performer — he’s a modern musical storyteller whose work bridges traditions. He emerged in the public eye as a member of Snarky Puppy, helping secure three Grammy Awards with the group. Beyond that, he has proven himself as a composer, singer, and solo artist with hit releases like Something to Say, Operation Funk, and Best of Me. His 2025 Grammy win for the album Church underscores the emotional and artistic weight his music carries.
Today, his sound is a weaving of styles: the call-and-response power of gospel, the improvisational freedom of jazz, and the groove-infused drive of funk and soul. As a collaborator, his reach extends far: from Kanye West to Rosalía, and from Imagine Dragons to Stevie Wonder.
That breadth of influence — and that versatility — make a solo performance particularly exciting: it strips back layers, leaving the core of his musical voice exposed.
Venue: Sala Ziemi, Poznań Congress Center
The concert will take place in Sala Ziemi, part of the Poznań Congress Center (MTP), located at Głogowska 14 / Głogowska 10, Poznań.
Sala Ziemi is a flexible, modern hall often used for both business events and large cultural gatherings. With its excellent acoustics and capacity for thousands of spectators, it is a space where intimate concerts feel immediate and grand performances resonate powerfully. Located in the heart of Poznań, the venue is well connected to transport hubs and surrounded by restaurants and hotels, making it an ideal setting for a night of world-class music.
Ticket information
For the Warsaw stop on 19 November 2025, tickets are already listed in the range PLN 139 to 369. It’s reasonable to expect a similar pricing structure for the Poznań concert, with tiered categories depending on seating.
Given Henry’s first-time arrival in Poland — and the rarity of a solo concert — early purchase is strongly recommended.
