A classic jazz trio meets a large string orchestra and soloists (clarinet, guitar, violin, cello) in a program that ranges from the great American jazz standards to original music composed specifically by the two project's founders, and traditional melodies from Puglia, the group's homeland. The result is a crossover of genres that, while keeping the spirit of jazz as its guiding principle, evokes echoes of classical music.
