The acoustic jazz fusion supergroup unites three legendary instrumentalists spanning bass, guitar, and violin. The virtuosic trio recorded the intimate, highly improvised sessions during a brief period of collaboration, pushing the boundaries of chamber jazz and flamenco influences. It stands as a masterclass in highly technical, purely acoustic ensemble playing.
