Xavi Torres, the driving force behind the trio, composed all of the music on this release. It is dynamic and adventurous, with strong attention to detail and played with virtuoso precision and verve. “My composing changes a lot depending on the situation,” explains Xavi. “I wrote Hope at a specific moment in my life, it just kind of appeared by itself, out of nowhere. The feeling of hope gives you energy. I was writing during a stormy moment of my life. This track has an intimate vibe.” The trio have been invited to play concerts in leading Dutch and Spanish jazz venues, and beyond. In June 2016 they won the prestigious “Dutch Jazz Competition.” In the opinion of the jury at the final in the Bimhuis: “They had a lyrical technical and rhythmic superiority, with a huge potential, energy and interplay. Harmonically sounds very interesting, with lots of fun moments. An exciting and surprising musical history.”
