TRIIO
2.30
Established in 2012 by bassist and composer Alex Fournier, Triio has grown from a quartet
featuring local canadian composers and modern jazz to a sextet featuring cinematic compositions that focus on the interplay and mutual influence shared between written music and free/collective improvisation. Contrasting intricate written sections with open ended improvisation, the music allows for total freedom of expression while still maintaining a distinct direction from piece to piece, with the goal of continuously creating a living score that is always open to the moment. This concert will feature music from Triio's second album, Six-ish Plateaus, plus music from their previous self-titled release.
