JASPER HØIBY’S THREE ELEMENTS
As the founding member of Phronesis, one of the most talked about and acclaimed European bands during the past decade, Høiby presents a new piano trio with a melodic, muscular and bold sound held together with a visceral, highly kinetic musical interplay.
Further exploring the trio cosmos he build with Phronesis Høiby is recording with three different lineups, each adding a specific expression, flavour and perspective to his already sophisticated piano trio universe.
Three Elements: Earthness includes: Noah Stoneman (piano) and Luca Caruso (drums). Released on Edition Records Nov 24, 2023.

“The intricate, information-dense linear arrangements and tightly plotted rhythm tracks that characterised Phronesis are here relaxed so that the music is allowed to flow and breathe.”

“3 Elements” thus offers an uncompromising and robust sound palette, which recalls the groove of Phronesis while being distinguished by the richness of the charismatic and unique sound of Høiby's bass."
- Radio France
Mesmerising interplay blends perfectly with virtuosic soloing, the three disparate elements combining seamlessly to become the greater whole.
