Pianist Matt Piet is joined by other notable rising Chicago improvisers Charlie Kirchen on bass and Julian Kirchner on drums.
This compilation of three albums tracks the live, in-performance progress of three improvising musicians over six months: from autumn of 2016 to spring of 2017.
"Live In Chicago" chronicles:
three up-and-coming young improvisers
in their first three live performances together as a trio
at three of Chicago's most essential outlets for improvised music.
"Matt Piet has so much to say and this [trio] becomes the perfect vehicle for it." - Philip Coombs, Free Jazz Collective
