"Just as Iroko Trio and billions of fellow human beings are by virtue of the small-world phenomenon positioned within 6 or fewer degrees of each other ... musicians, writers, journalists, filmmakers, photographers, quiltmakers, multimedia artists et al in a system of interlinked recommendations are likewise positioned — by the identical phenomenon — within a handful of transitable steps of each other — and by extrapolation — within discoverable, accessible reach of just about everybody everywhere here on planet earth. Algorithms not necessary."

Com sonoridade versátil e contemporânea, Iroko Trio nasce para transitar um caminho único na ampla geografia musical da América Latina.

Ao convergir estilos entre obras autorais, comissionadas ou emblemáticas do repertório clássico latino-americano, o trio cria espaço para peças ora imponentes, como Danzón Nº 2, de Arturo Márquez, ora intimistas, como Memória e Fado, de Egberto Gismonti.

Em seus arranjos próprios, exploram com extraordinária profundidade e amplitude cada um dos instrumentos, até seu limite técnico, oferecendo alternativas sonoras surpreendentes para a formação. Iroko Trio, composto por três instrumentistas com brilhantes carreiras individuais, cujas trajetórias cosmopolitas se conectam, contrapõe com maestria a concepção erudita às formas populares. Um convite irrecusável para ouvidos atentos.

With its versatile and contemporary sound, the Iroko Trio has carved a unique path in the vast musical geography of Latin American. Embracing a variety of styles from original compositions, commissioned works, or iconic pieces from the classical Latin American repertoire, the Trio’s repertoire ranges from large and imposing works such as Danzón no. 2 by Arturo Márquez, to intimate pieces such as Memória e Fado by Egberto Gismonti.

Through its own arrangements, the Trio also explores the range, depth, and technical resources of each of its instruments, thus extending the sound palette of the ensemble beyond its expected sonorities. The Iroko Trio is composed of three musicians who have built brilliant individual careers as soloists, and whose cosmopolitan trajectories come together to provide a masterful combination of classical and popular musical forms. The results are an irresistible invitation to attentive and discerning listeners.
