This evening’s programme will include selections from ECM recordings entitled Trio Tapestry, Garden of Expression and Our Daily Bread. Additional selections will be introduced from the stage.

Grammy Award-winning composer, saxophonist and producer Joe Lovano makes his ECM debut with Trio Tapestry, featuring pianist Marilyn Crispell and Carmen Castaldi on drums. Long-time collaborators in various projects over the years, each member of the trio is a pillar in their respective industries: Lovano is a titan of jazz saxophone, The Guardian calls Marilyn Crispell 'one of the most highly regarded pianists at the sharp end of contemporary jazz' and Castaldi is a superb percussionist in the continuing legacy of Paul Motion. With innovative new compositions Lovano calls 'some of the most intimate, personal music' he’s recorded thus far, he unfurls a tapestry of modal expressions interwoven with shimmering saxophone, passionate spirituality in the piano and a range of exceptional percussive accents.
