Download music!: Indra Lesmana-Mimpi Dan Rumah Ke Tujuh
Once upon a time, sometimes around mid 1976, people witnessed the magical performance by a 10 year old boy on stage, a 10 year old boy with ten little fingers dancing on the fender rhodes. A star was born. It was his first appearance on stage, and he’s still making a big impact in Indonesian jazz frame till today. Indra Lesmana was a wonder kid, and will always be someone with very special and gifted talent.
Several years after, he came back to Indonesia, and formed a quartet with his father, Jack and Indra Lesmana Quartet. The other two was Karim Suweileh and James Morrison. When he returned to Australia, he made a latin fusion band called “Children of Fantasy” that only lasted less than a year. Another band was formed after that, called Nebula, with Steve Hunter, Ken James, Andy Evans, Vince Genova and Carlinhos Gonzalves. With this formation he released “No Standing”.This album released in Australia under Jasmine Records, and also in Indonesia by prestigeous Jackson Records.
Two of his albums, “No Standing and “For Earth and Heaven” was released in USA. Two singles, No Standing and Stephanie entered the Jazz Billboard Chart in USA, and also several radio charts at that time.
Indra has made or involved in more than 40 albums in his career. He has tons of solo albums, but he was also joining several bands like Krakatau, Java Jazz and P.I.G (Pra B Dharma, Indra , Gilang Ramadhan). He also produced albums for many other fellow musicians, and personally mixed and mastered more than 20 albums of other musicians. Indra Lesmana also works for Indonesian Idol as one of the jury.
Tons of awards, lots of albums, and more than 30 years of creativity, amazing talent on playing keyboard, piano and some other instruments has made him a legend, an Indonesian jazz icon. It would be really difficult to imagine indonesian jazz world without Indra.
