`

 We perform a wide spectrum of sounds with influences ranging from African folk music to wide open spontaneous "on the spot" creations. Our improvisations juxtapose minimal and meditative atmospheres with freewheeling excursions into "terra incognito" as one of our  preferred destinations.

We like to mix things up and perform pieces from some of the great jazz composers such as : Thelonious Monk , Wayne Shorter , Carla Bley and Paul Motian. In between these worlds we also perform a few original compositions as well as tunes from good friends who are excellent composers.  Exploratory , ephemeral , eclectic and perhaps a bit eccentric are just a few words best describe our musical aspirations and direction.
