This period spawned some of the most inventive songwriters and lyricists who ever lived. Their work has an ageless quality that has kept it popular through the years. Most of our music comes from the vast collection of standards, but also includes many contemporary tunes, tunes from the jazz greats and from the gifted Brazillian composers of the Bossa Nova tradition. We approach our music from a jazz angle. Although we develop a song for presentation, we don't strive to perform it the same way each time.
Jazz invites the performer to interpret a piece in a fresh way each time it is done.
Each performance is unique since much of it being created on the spot. This makes the music vital and alive, for audience and performer alike. We try to keep our performances spacious and listenable. The trio context allows us great freedom in the interpretation of a tune, without becoming crowded or harsh. All three of us enjoy drawing out the beauty inherent in a particular song, seeking the interesting possibilities of rhythm and harmony.
