The music of this trio is founded in a solid knowledge of the tradition of jazz. But it also encapsulates a fresh approach to this old musical form – resulting in a lyrical and melancholic, yet at the same time energetic and intense sound.

The music of Wolff/Angiuli/Fryland is founded in a solid knowledge of the tradition of jazz. But the trio also encapsulates a fresh approach to this old musical form – resulting in a lyrical and melancholic, yet at the same time energetic and intense sound. During the past 6 years this trio has performed throughout Europe and in 2008 the trio both toured and recorded with legendary vibraphonist Teddy Charles, receiving great international acclaim by both the press and the public. On their debut CD “Prelude” compositions by the trio members as well as more familiar jazz repertoire are taken into treatment. Now this trio is back with their second album and a debut on Challenge Jazz: again an extraordinary jazz album!
