Fabian Willmann and his trio with Jeff Ballard on drums and Arne Huber on bass are "casually celebrating the beauty of melody" (thatjazz).
They strip the music down to the essentials, yet with something to say in every breath, devoid of any chatter, redundancy, or showing off.
All About Jazz compare their "spaciously presented pieces to the groundbreaking trio work of Sonny Rollins in the '50s and Ornette Coleman in the '60s" and describe their debut album Balance as "one of the most unassuming albums of 2022, that may end up being as one of the Best of the Year as well."
This promises to be an enthralling evening with one of the modern greats of jazz drums, Jeff Ballard, playing with this special trio.
