Equilibrium jazz trio had their debut in the final recital of drummer Kier Hall on 31st May 2013, Rymer Auditorium, University of York. Here are a couple of the tunes!
Bembé, a West African rhythm in 12/8, was devised in rehearsals by exploring additive and subtractive rhythmic cells around which each player can solo.
Jigsaw starts with a look at the completed picture. The players then have to assemble the pieces quickly. Once the puzzle is completed, the pieces get drastically disfigured and contorted…
