Double trio concert  

The trio Dell / Lillinger / Westergaard combines energetic play with structural development. A musical high-energy state of different differentiations, variants, sound overlays, and contexts unfold from the musicians' interaction. Plasticity and physicality grow into a completely independent aesthetic.

The trio delivers exceptionally compelling soundscapes that wind through a tight interlocking of musical structures.

Frankfurter Rundschau calls the trio's expression "Boulez in Real-Time."

Austrian Freistil writes: "The trio's style is a wide-open, unorthodox structural system that yields to the magic of the moment, executed with agogic mastery. More sensitive music. People sharing their insight into the power and essence of sound art." 

Søren Kjærgaard, Jonas Westergaard, and Peter Bruun have for several years been leading voices on the European music scene in modern jazz, improvised music, and contemporary composition.

The trio is a collective symbiotic entity that immerses itself in the tension between complex stringent structures and improvisation.

The trio distinguishes itself by an extremely thorough and collective examination of original material. Through processing and immersion from every conceivable perspective, a bodily understanding of complex musical concepts emerges, giving the three musicians a completely unfettered intuition to move between composition and improvisation.
