Description
Drummer Daniel Humair, bass player Heiri Kanzig, and trombone player Samuel Blaser may span three generations, with ages ranging from 42 to 85, but their musical synergy transcends time and age. This trio of virtuosos engages in a captivating dialogue that seamlessly blends tradition with modernity, lyricism with drama, intimacy with humour. Renowned as masters of their instruments, accomplished band leaders, and esteemed composers, they are highly valued within the global jazz community for their exceptional talents and deep connections.
In 2020, this all-star trio embarked on a musical journey with their debut album '1291', paying homage to Switzerland's oldest constitutional document. 'Our Way', showcases a compelling fusion of original compositions, standard jazz pieces, and interpretations of Swiss folk songs. Through frequent collaborations and performances together, the trio's teamwork has grown stronger, enabling them to interact more spontaneously and draw upon their vast experience to expand their repertoire.
