A culmination of this trio’s artistic projects, Trio d’en Bas was formed in 2003 to play “high-brow music for low-brow France” or simple, music that has been labeled yet is heard to describe.
Over the pass five years, they have done concerts in their original trio from and hybrid forms born out of collaboration with other artists such as music and circus, music and theater, music and painting, music and dance, music and video….
Their music ID definitely jazz influenced yet unclassifiable; a joyful mix of original compositions with sudden improvisations, angry political outbursts and unexpected humor, not to mention, the “revisitations” of borrowed themes from the annals of jazz, French pop and sometimes even international pop music.
Trio D’en Bas is the winner of Jazz Migration Contest,2010 Conferred by AFIJMA(the Association of Innovative Jazz and Contemporary Music Festivals) and the FSJ(Federation of Jazz Venues).
