SUMMARY:Butcher/Wastell/Marino trio
DESCRIPTION:Doors 6:45 PM\, Music 7:30 PM - 1 set(s) of music\n \nLine-up:\nJohn Butcher – Saxophones\n\nMark Wastell – Percussion\n\nLuigi Marino – Percussion and electronics\n\n \nAbout\nRelease concert for Parallel Streams by Buther/Wastell/Marino trio.\n\nThe trio of John Butcher\, Mark Wastell\, and Luigi Marino first met in 2022 at the chapel of St. Margaret's House in Bethnal Green\, London. Wastell and Marino had begun collaborating in 2018—initially within Mark’s large ensemble The Seen\, and later as a parallel duo—focusing on the resonances of metal instruments and a shared sense of time.\n\nFollowing the pandemic\, the duo initiated a concert series inviting a different special guest for each performance.\n\nThe first guest was world-renowned saxophonist John Butcher.\n\nIn the intimate setting of the chapel\, surrounded by metal instruments\, John explored their resonant frequencies—exciting the surfaces with his saxophone and forging a bridge between the duo’s sound and his own long-standing interest in resonant spaces. The meeting evolved into a trio\, embracing open forms of improvisation that allow the metal instruments themselves\nto become active participants in the music.\n\nTheir debut release\, Parallel Streams\, was published in 2024 by Confront Recordings.\n"In many moments\, it reaches the level of acoustic meditation worthy of the AMM masters."\n (Spontaneous Music Tribune)\n"... this is a perfect trio for deep exploration and unusual yet compelling results. Essential."\n (SquidCo)\n"... invite the listeners to immerse themselves in their deep and delicate\, mysterious and imaginative resonances."\n (Eyal Hareuveni\, Salt Peanuts)\n\nParallel Streams by John Butcher / Luigi Marino / Mark Wastell
