Amidst a musical landscape reliant on remote collaboration and new approaches to presenting music, an emerging collection of compositions demanded a return to the format that inescapably calls us back, time and time again: trio.
This session documents the living, breathing connection forged between three musicians in one room, in real time. We embrace the mantra of Counting Sheep and invite a tone row’s movements and Glances, and in song we Remember the voice of Carol Fredette and lament the loss of Frank Kimbrough.
