About the show
Renowned pianist Bruno Heinen joins forces with legendary New York drummer Nasheet Waits (Jason Moran, Andrew Hill, Fred Hersch) and the formidable, groove-heavy double bassist Rio Kai.
Expect a masterclass in dynamic interaction and rhythmic exploration. This trio balances Heinen’s lyrical, classically-informed compositions with the raw, avant-garde energy of the New York jazz lineage. From intimate melodic passages to explosive improvisations, this performance promises a deep, telepathic dialogue between three of the most compelling musicians working today.
