A sought after trio of legends | Oslo Jazzfestival 2023
With his signature Hammond organ style and versatility on many keyboards, Larry Goldings has traversed not only the wide spectrum of jazz, but also the worlds of funk, pop, and electronic music. High in demand as a sideman, Goldings' sound can be heard on scores in virtually every musical genre. As a leader, he has released 13 albums, many of which feature his long time organ trio with Peter Bernstein and Bill Stewart.
Guitarist Peter Bernstein has been an integral part of the world jazz scene since 1989. He has been sought out by musicians from all generations and his recognizable guitar voice graces over a hundred recordings. As a leader, Bernstein has recorded six highly regarded albums, displaying not only his masterful interpretations of standards, but also his inventive and lyrical compositions.
Drummer Bill Stewart made his name as the rhythmic force behind guitarist John Scofield's band, but is now one of the most sought after jazz drummers in the world. His playing is distinguished by its melodic focus, and its polyrhythmic, or layered, character. Stewart's voice is clearly his own and already is influencing a younger generation of drummers.
The trio, which has now been together for over 20 years, has been recognized for charting new ground, with its synergistic playing, yet thoughtful music. They have recorded eight albums and one DVD together, all of which display their distinctive sound, whether exploring the depths of jazz standards, or playing their own original compositions.
Together, the three musicians with great ears and a lineup rich in tradition, make for passionate, grooving, highly sophisticated music.
