Simpletrio2000

Description

Every new album by saxophonist, flutist, and composer Anna Webber feels like a revelation, and a huge step forward in a discography of the highest quality. Anna Webber's simpletrio2000 which comes a decade after the release of the group's debut Simple, expresses their deep curiosity and tireless creativity. At the intersection of avant-garde jazz and new classical music, Webber's work has been hailed as "visionary and captivating". With her previous albums, she has regularly ranked at the top of the relevant charts. The Simple Trio is her longest-running band. Since its formation in 2013, few bands in improvised music have displayed such an effervescent energy and adventurous spirit. The group, which also includes drummer John Hollenbeck and pianist Matt Mitchell - both accomplished composers and bandleaders - makes music that is anything but ,simple'. But the complexity of the music, which cannot be ignored, is accompanied by a stormy cheerfulness, and Peter Margasak raves about the "addictive energy and interplay occurring within the trio at all times."
