A fresh & open music, delicate & space-conscious, is shaped as drummer Thomas Strønen & Ayumi Tanaka, resurface in a new trio with clarinettist/singer/percussionist Marthe Lea. The group first came together at Oslo’s Royal Academy of Music. The spontaneous spirit of the music is reflected in the trio’s debut recording, which was made at the Lugano radio studio. With the exception of the title piece, based on a traditional Norwegian tune, the music on Bayou was collectively created in the moment.
