Reviews

The trio's sound proposal is solidly based on the language of free jazz, full of urgency and explosiveness, free improvisation and contemporary music, without premises and with musicians eager to explore different sound territories. The music they weave is urgent, dynamic and intensely propulsive, but it does not neglect, at times, a more contemplative component and attentiveness to silence. There are no hierarchies or subordinations of any kind, but rather an equality of roles, all of which are decisive for the sound construction. Everything heard in this live recording was completely improvised in a logic of spontaneity and real-time communication.
