Bill Frisell Trio feat. Luke Bergman & Rudy Royston

In the organizer's words:

20:00 I Concert I 🎤 Concert Hall

Bill Frisell is undoubtedly one of the most influential guitarists of our time - many of his colleagues refer to his playing style, which sometimes seems to float unreal, but can then be unruly and wonderfully abstract. Alongside John Scofield and Pat Metheny, he was already known worldwide in the 1980s and 90s and is still considered one of the most individualistic and innovative guitarists of his genre. He has played across genres with musicians from jazz and pop, the list ranges from Charles Lloyd and Ginger Baker to Marianne Faithfull, Elvis Costello and Burt Bacharach. No wonder he is listed as one of America's 21 most vital and productive performing artists and has been awarded a Grammy. If you want to know more, director Emma Franz made the documentary "Bill Frisell: A Portrait" about him, which examines his creative working processes in detail.
The legendary US guitarist has played regularly in a trio with bassist Luke Bergmann and drummer Rudy Royston for many years. While bassist Luke Bergmann is one of the more reserved personalities - also musically - Rudy Royston on drums, the third man in the trio, is characterized by a lot of temperament, which he also likes to show. Perhaps this is precisely why the music of the three individualists Frisell, Bergmann and Royston is so exciting. And of course also because jazz, Americana, blues, folk and avant-garde flow into each other so effortlessly and indecently coherently in their songs.
