Jazz concert
Presented by working title - David Soin Tappeser (drummer& composer); Gustavo Mezo (pianist); and Theo Malka-Wishart (double bassist)
Embracing the intimacy and flexibility of the traditional piano trio format, the group’s game is highly interactive, collaborative and improvisation driven. Interweaving hip-hop-grooves with Ethiopian harmonies, folk tunes with reggaeton and the Beatles with bhangra, the trio’s sounds emanate beyond genre or cultural specificity, infinite, indefinite and open to interpretation
