With Lukas Traxel on bass and Jimmy Macbride on drums, the trio plays Max Petersen´s original compositions with eloquenceand virtuosity. As a European, the young German pianist searches for an amalgam between American and European Jazz."When I studied in New York in 2014 I realized, that the musicians of the Jazz-capital aren´t as informed about musicians inEurope as we are about them." Says the Zurich based Pianist in an interview. He believes that the key to a new, contemporarystyle of Jazz lies in a long term and intense working relationship. In this new style the "roots and soul" of African Americanblues confronts the tradition of European classical music and the modern European sound esthetic hits the irresistible grooveof urban New York City. Be there to see it happen!
