The Triangle

Beschreibung

Vassilis Tsabropoulos: piano
Arild Andersen: double bass
John Marshall: drums
Arild Andersen’s trio emphasises the writing and playing of Greek pianist Vassilis Tsabropoulos, whose melodic improvising and sense of form are influenced by his background as a classical musician. Tsabropoulos’s tunes, and his arrangement of Ravel here, cast the jazz piano trio genre in another light as do his contributions to Andersen’s pieces and the collective improvisation European Triangle. Arild Andersen’s driving bass and John Marshall’s inventive drums give the music its sense of propulsion. Recorded 2003.
