Tommy Meier Root Down: The Master And The Rain
by Mark Corroto
Swiss-born reed man Tommy Meier's immersion into African jazz dips into a body of music covering three continents touched by the African diaspora of people and sound. A follow-up to Root Down (Intakt, 2008), his Root Down orchestra's The Master And The Rain, once again, offers a large ensemble update on the music of Fela Kuti ...
Irene Schweizer / Dewan Motihar / Barney Wilen / Manfred Schoof: Jazz Meets India
by John Kelman
Years before John McLaughlin began a deep investigation into the music of India that resonates to this day, there was Jazz Meets India. It wasn't the first time that Indian music had crept into popular western culture--The Beatles and John Coltrane, amongst others, had already seen to that--but this 1967 MPS date was an early experimental ...

by John Sharpe
Oliver Lake, Reggie Workman, Andrew Cyrille & Irene Schweizer Bimhuis Amsterdam October 19, 2009 Trio 3 comprises familiar faces on the European concert circuit.

Trio 3 + Irene Schweizer: Berne Concert
by AAJ Italy Staff
Ci sta che un gruppo alla ribalta da quasi un ventennio, concerto dopo concerto, disco dopo disco, giunga ad un equilibrio statico delle proprie dinamiche, a un'inconscia cristallizzazione delle trame musicali, dei ruoli e infine alla prevedibilità dell'esito artistico. Meravigliosa prevedibilità trattandosi del Trio 3 di Oliver Lake, Reggie Workman e Andrew Cyrille, ma pur sempre ...
Trio 3: At This Time and Berne Concert
by Clifford Allen
30-odd years ago, the lineup of Trio 3--a veritable supergroup--might have seemed surprising. By the mid-'70s, drummer Andrew Cyrille had fed polyrhythmic invention to Cecil Taylor's unit structures and tuned drums for ten years, while bassist Reggie Workman was known for his work with Coltrane and a number of Blue Note artists. Reedman Oliver Lake, who ...
Trio 3 + Geri Allen: At This Time
by Chris May
The publicity surrounding the release of At This Time is making much of the addition of a pianist to Trio 3's saxophone, bass and drums line-up. Arguably, however, the inclusion of a keyboard, played by Geri Allen, isn't the album's most significant feature. True, during the course of the group's 23-year history, most of its work ...
Trio 3 + Irene Schweizer: Berne Concert
by John Sharpe
Almost without anyone noticing, Trio 3 has become one of the great working bands in jazz. That's not the default outcome of longevity: though saxophonist Oliver Lake, bassist Reggie Workman and drummer Andrew Cyrille first got together under the Trio 3 moniker back in 1992, they have become, if anything, a more cohesive unit over time. ...
Trio 3 / Irene Schweizer: Berne Concert
by Nic Jones
Maybe a look at the participants is enough to make clear that the music they produce is going to be something. This program doesn't disappoint, even while many expectations may be confounded. As is often the case, when musicians are caught for posterity in a live setting, the music comes from a different place, and those ...
