Event Details
"This trio has learnt to defy gravity... Mesmerising” - Sydney Morning Herald
One of the most distinctive and spellbinding units in Australian contemporary music, the Alister Spence Trio has gained worldwide recognition for their ingenious compositions and magnetic live interplay. Together they create luminous soundscapes that are dark, lyrical, textured and endlessly surprising.
Formed in Sydney more than twenty years ago, this trio brings together three of the most innovative and experienced musicians in Australia. Their collective biographies and discographies are extensive, and individually include performances and recordings with diverse luminaries such as Dewey Redman, Brian Eno, Archie Roach, Jim O’Rourke, Paul Capsis and the Laughing Clowns. This Winter Jazz performance celebrates the release of their long-awaited new double album, the trio’s seventh recording. Their 2016 recording, 'Alister Spence Trio: Live' won them an Art Music Award for Excellence in Jazz.
SPECIAL SUPPORT BY CROSSOVER Crossover is the latest project from Bonnie Stewart. Her ethereal voice and percussive textures sail through her evolving compositions, flowing together with the lush and playful tones of Luke Sweeting and distinctive experimental sounds of Paul Cutlan. Crossover forges an amalgam of improvisation, haunting melodies, and polyphonic soundscapes.
