« For me, the trio is the ideal formation for improvising music. In general, even numbers imply something known, where odd numbers feel open. « 2 » can create corners that « 3 » can melt down, transform. « 3 » is complete, continuous and infinite. Dynamics move stasis. It’s playful.

« For 3 consecutive nights I brought together in concert 3 distinct trios, with 6 other Montréal musicians each chosen for their fertile imagination and identifiable musical style. This disc is made primarily from these live encounters recorded during the heatwave of June 2, 3 and 4, 2005 at the Bistro Le Va-et-Vient in Montréal.

« Certain musical passages were later re-worked in the studio to « compose » other sonic and textural elements. This latter development was made possible thanks to the magical and mega-inspirational mind of Michel F Côté. »
