“了不起的是，古老的音乐传统、Radiohead和以Duke Ellington为范式的音乐能够毫无冲突地共存，仿佛这一切都仅出自一人之手。”
——Tomotala Hane

EYM三重奏是一支来自法国的爵士乐队。在2010年11月的某一天，钢琴手Ellie Dufour、低音提琴手Yaan Phayphet和鼓手Marc Michel三人齐聚法国里昂，也正是这一次交流，促成了EYM三重奏的诞生。凭借着各自对音乐同样的热情，EYM三重奏把第一个三年花在了艰难的音乐创作里。他们在舞台上探索各种美学的可能，也尝试各种不同的与人连结的方式，以此寻找真正属于自我的标识。很快，他们创作出了极具震撼力的作品，包括他们个人的原创，以及受北非、保加利亚、罗马尼亚和印度等有着不同民族色彩的爵士乐影响的改编与创作。
2013年，EYM三重奏在意大利录制了他们的第一张专辑《Genesi》，并受邀在法国Saint-Fon爵士音乐节、Altitude爵士音乐节、Magic Mirrors爵士音乐节、Crescent爵士俱乐部和Fort en Jazz爵士音乐节等献演。除此之外，EYM三重奏也成功进入了2013年Rézzo Focal Jazz à Vienne这一重量级爵士乐比赛的决赛。2015年更是乐队的里程碑，他们在三个重要爵士比赛中摘得桂冠：巴黎圣日耳曼德佩爵士音乐节爵士比赛（巴黎）、拉德芳斯全国爵士比赛（巴黎）和Getxo国际爵士音乐比赛。其中，他们在西班牙作为Stanley Clarke的表演嘉宾与其同台演出。同年，EYM三重奏在伦敦的皇家音乐学院表演，更受邀进行了一场由法国音乐广播电台全程直播的现场演出。
2016年，他们在法国知名录音工作室Studio de Meudon录制了新唱片，并首次走出了欧洲，在印度举行了七场音乐会。那是一次充满了思想碰撞的旅程，让乐队深深地爱上了印度音乐文化，并促成了他们在印度哈迈达巴德与当地舞者及音乐家的一个融合音乐项目的合作。

“What is remarkable, is that the old musical tradition, Radiohead and a standard of Duke Ellington coexist in parallel without any conflict, as if all this was made by one and only man.”
– Tomotala Hane

EYM Trio is a French jazz band born of the meeting between Elie Dufour (piano), Yann Phayphet (double bass) and Marc Michel (drum) on a day of November 2010 in Lyon (France). Sharing the same passion, they spend their 3 first years together on a hard creation work. They experimented on stage many esthetics, many ways of being connected, to find their own identity. Quickly, they created a strong repertoire including personal compositions, covers and creations inspired by ethnic influences of jazz with colors from North Africa, Bulgaria, Romania, and India.
In 2013, EYM Trio recorded their first album Genesi in Italy. They are also asked for performing at the Saint-Fons Jazz Festival, Altitude Jazz Festival, Magic Mirrors, Crescent Jazz Club and Fort en Jazz. EYM Trio were finalists of the famous competition called Rézzo Focal Jazz à Vienne in 2013. 2015 was a glorious time for the band. They won three famous jazz competitions: jazz competition of Jazz à Saint-Germain-des-Prés (Paris), national jazz competition of La Défenses (Paris) and Gexto International Jazz Competition (Spain) where they also supported act of Stanley Clarke. In the same year, EYM Trio performed in UK at the Royal Academy of Music in London, and they were invited for a live show streamed by the french national radio France Musique.
In 2016, EYM Trio recorded the disk at the famous Studio de Meudon (Paris), and performed out of Europe for the first time. They left France for seven gigs in India. It was a trip full of exchanges and sharing, the band felt in love with Indian musical culture. They worked on a fusion project in Ahmedabad with indian dancers and musicians.

Jeppe Zeeberg – 钢琴 Piano

“如果说Zeeberg不是一个天才，那他至少也非常接近了。”
——allaboutjazz.com

Jeppe Zeeberg是欧洲当前最优秀的年轻音乐家之一。作为一位技艺精湛的钢琴家、撼动人心的即兴音乐家和勤奋的乐队领袖，Zeeberg不仅已经完全征服了他的故乡丹麦，也在世界乐坛大放异彩。享有声望的爵士博客saltpeanuts形容他是“一位出色的作曲家和钢琴家……音乐天才”。他斩获了无数奖项，其中包括2017年由丹麦艺术委员会颁发的、重量级的Den Unge Elite（年轻的精英）奖；他在世界范围内的音乐评论界都受到高度认可，发行了8张好评如潮的专辑——而这一切在他不到30岁的时候就做到了……有理由相信，Jeppe Zeeberg会成为未来真正的巨星。
Jeppe Zeeberg生于1988年。他的风格是一种基于爵士与自由即兴的多种音乐类型的混合体，同时又非常个人化。他的首张专辑《It’s The Most Basic Thing You Can Do On A Boat》于2014年发行，被美国爵士杂志《All About Jazz》评价为“为现代爵士或者说当代音乐提供了一种优美而令人信服的可能性”，丹麦艺术委员更授予其“七张年度最佳爵士专辑”之一的殊荣；2017年，他的第三张专辑《The Four Seasons》面世，同样广获好评，加拿大杂志《Textura》写道：“在下一曲播放出来之前，我们根本无法预料它会是什么样子——这本身就相当罕有，且值得举杯。不同于一众流于平庸的专辑，Zeeberg的作品——从丹麦穿越到孟菲斯，再到新奥尔良，仿佛那是世界上最自然的事情——给我们带来了层出不穷的惊喜。”
Jeepe Zeeberg 2013从哥本哈根韵律音乐学院（RMC）毕业并获得了硕士学位。他是厂牌兼音乐人团体Barefoot Records的一员，并在许多乐队中担任乐手，包括Dødens Garderobe、Kresten Osgood五重奏、Horse Orchestra（2016年OCT-LOFT国际爵士音乐节开幕演出）、The Roll-Ons和Bird Alert等。他与诸如John Tchicai这样的许多国际知名乐手有过合作，也为戏剧和舞蹈表演作曲，同时也是一位活跃的音乐策划人和推手，参与举办了包括John Cage百年诞辰纪念音乐会、哥本哈根Nutidsklang即兴音乐节和纪念美国音乐家Moondog百年诞辰的Moondog 100 År音乐节在内的许多音乐活动。
此前，Zeeberg随乐团在欧洲、日本、中国进行过巡演。这一次，他将首次以个人身份登上OCT-LOFT国际爵士音乐节的舞台。

“If Zeeberg isn’t a genius then he certainly ranks pretty close to one.”

Jeppe Zeeberg is one of Europe’s finest young musicians. As a virtuosic pianist, sensational improviser and tireless band-leader, Zeeberg has taken his homeland of Denmark by storm, with respected jazz blog saltpeanuts describing him as “an excellent composer and pianist… a musical genius”. Winning multiple awards, including the prestigious Den Unge Elite award by the Danish Arts Council in 2017, gaining critical recognition for his music from around the world, and releasing eight acclaimed albums all before his 30th birthday, Zeeberg is making a name as one of the true stars of the future.

Jeppe Zeeberg was born in 1988. His style is a personal, uncompromising blend of genres, based in jazz and free improvisation. His first album in his own name, It’s The Most Basic Thing You Can Do On A Boat (2014) was called “A beautiful, convincing proposal for how modern jazz or contemporary music may sound” by the American magazine All About Jazz. The Danish Arts Council honored the album with an award naming it one of the seven best Danish releases in 2014. In 2017 his third album, The Four Seasons, was released – also to positive reviews. Canadian Textura Magazine wrote, “It’s impossible to know what the next piece will bring until it arrives, which is in itself something rare and worth celebrating. Whereas many a recording quickly lapses into predictability, Zeeberg’s, which travels from Denmark to Memphis and New Orleans like it’s the most natural thing in the world, offers one surprise after another.”

Jeppe Zeeberg has a master’s degree in music from Rhythmic Music Conservatory in Copenhagen (2013). He is a member of the record label and musicians collective Barefoot Records and plays in the bands Dødens Garderobe, Kresten Osgood Quintet, Horse Orchestra, The Roll-Ons, and Bird Alert. He has collaborated with international performers like John Tchicai, composed music for theater and dance performances, and co-organized events like John Cage’s 100th Birthday Concert, the Copenhagen-based improvisation festival Nutidsklang and the festival Moondog 100 År.

Following a previous tour across Japan with his award-winning ensemble, Horse Orchestra, and with previous tours in Europe and the UK under his belt, Zeeberg is embarking on a solo tour of Asia in 2018, taking in parts of China and revisiting Japan.
