A recently formed trio of improvising musicians, double bass, sax, piano. The music ranges from intense sparsity to blasting phrases and ethereal noise. Long, haunting melodic material is developed with interplay amongst the musicians, who gently push each other to extend their expression. The trio move together in the musical journey, which crosses from abstraction to rhythmic episodes and develops jazz-influenced rhythms and harmony. Each player’s long experience of improvising allows for deep listening, and more exploratory soundscapes involving extended techniques, vocals and electronic treatment. Maria Kalnars: piano Ian Robinson: double bass Hervé Perez: alto saxophone
