Born into a family of accomplished musicians, jazz bass player Chris Minh Doky seeked to become a doctor. His Danish mother is a former pop singer and his Vietnamese father is a classical guitarist and medical doctor. Out of boredom Chris started playing classical piano when he was six years old. In the few years that followed he won three awards at the Royal Danish Conservatory for Classical Music. When he was fifteen, he picked up the electric bass by accident. Two years later Doky started playing the upright bass as a result of hearing the Miles Davis album, My Funny Valentine. A year later the Royal Danish Conservatory for Contemporary Music gave the young musician a reward for his accomplishments with the upright bass.
In 1989 Minh chose to move to New York City to further his music career. He started performing with young musicians like Joey Calderazzo, Curtis Stigers and Larry Goldings. When he was twenty-one Minh became the bass player for Mike Stern. He also played for others such as David Sanborn, Bill Evans and Kirk Whalum. That same year, Storyville Records gave Minh his first recording contract, resulting in three years of releases. He went on to sign with Blue Note in 1995, resulting in more recordings with people like Al Jarreau and Dianne Reeves. More recordings followed in the next couple of years, working with several American musicians and three albums as a composer, bandleader, and producer. Guest participants have included Randy Brecker and Bill Evans (saxophonist) plus his pianist brother Niels. Among the award he recieved in the 90's, Doky was invited to the White House to play while Bill Clinton occupied the Oval Office.

- @老余：原想要成为一名医生的Chris Minh Doky却成为了一个出色的爵士乐贝斯手，母亲是丹麦的前流行歌手，父亲是越南一名古典吉他手和医生。在六岁的时候出于无聊，克里斯开始弹奏古典钢琴，但没过几年他就赢得了丹麦皇家学院三个奖项，15岁时他又玩起电贝司，三年后又赢得皇家学院的奖励，在1989年，移居到纽约市，继续他的音乐生涯，并与Blue Note签约。在90年代Doky曾被邀请到白宫的椭圆形办公室，为克林顿演奏。非常不错的爵士乐，可惜在中国还不为广大听众了解…。 ENJOE 2012-05-12 11:44 多谢老余推荐 老余 2012-05-12 13:54 ENJOE说： 多听听，养人的。
