Description
The River of Orion: 30 Years Running audio CD signed by String Trio of New York jazz musicians James Emery (guitar), John Lindberg (bass) and Rob Thomas (violin).
Reviewing The River of Orion: 30 Years Running CD on the All About Jazz website, Glenn Astarita, Senior Contributor, writes, "Again, the trio explores numerous concepts while always maintaining sinuous flows and probing storylines. The musicians execute a cohesive plane that goes on a burgeoning journey, spanning sweet and sassy grooves to torridly devised free-bop passages."
Special Instructions
String Trio of New York was formed in the late 1970s by three musicians who wanted to explore their individual compositions and develop improvisational work. They gradually expanded their focus to include works commissioned from other avant-garde composers as well as new arrangements of jazz standards. They have recorded more than 14 albums and played in venues all over North America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa, and has appeared in jazz festivals in Berlin, Paris, Warsaw, Zurich, and across the United States.
"...as rhythmically alive, stylistically varied and consistently inventive as anything this listener has heard recently." - The New York Times
