The String Trio Of New York Celebrate 40 Years
By: Stephi Wild Oct. 04, 2018
The String Trio of New York is an American jazz chamber ensemble. The group was founded in 1977 by bassist John Lindberg, violinist Billy Bang, and guitarist James Emery. Though they initially worked on improvisational playing and on their own compositions, they eventually began taking on commissions, as well as doing arrangements of other jazz musicians' work. For over two decades, the Trio has been one of the most active touring ensembles of its kind and has performed hundreds of concerts throughout North America, Europe, East Asia, India, the Middle East, and North Africa. Their international jazz festival appearances include Berlin, Paris, Zurich, Vancouver, Toronto, Leipzig, Cracow, Victoria, Edmonton, Lovere, Tampere, Leverkusen, Warsaw and others. Hailed by critics worldwide, the Philadelphia Inquirer said that the Trio "...is solidly prepared, but offers the excitement of improvisation projected through unshakable musicianship."
