Jazz as an inclusive force
Out of Marco Betti’s many musical endeavuors, the Trio is definitely the most long-lived and personal.
Continuously active since 2012, it is both a laboratory in which to pursuit a rigorous research on language and styles of improvisational music, and a context to give shape to the most disparate creative urges.
I try to base my interplay with other musicians on a minimal basis, by working on melodic lines and tribal beats. Improvisational spaces must be equally divided among the players: I want the expressive result to be always more than the sum of its parts.
- Marco Betti: drums
- Elia Grassi: piano
- Alessandro Germini: bass
The project’s longevity brought its repertoire to branch into diverse directions: research paths centered upon themes, sounds, and authors that are particularly dear to Marco, that the Trio regularly reprises live, represented in concerts with specifically dedicated programs.
