Samuel Blaser Trio (Marc Ducret, Peter Brunn)

Beware, a trio of virtuosos in sight! At the head of this European band is trombonist Samuel Blaser, who continues to prove that he is one of the most gifted instrumentalists of his generation. Always on the lookout for innovative approaches, his calm, classy melodic lines contrast here with the soaring flights of guitarist Marc Ducret, a veritable UFO of French jazz. Backed by the versatile Peter Bruun on percussion, the three men deliver daring music. Their sound is resolutely new and refined, with emotion transforming into a strange poetry, between the finesse and tension of their collective playing.
