Event Description

The Acoustic Sessions Lite Present : HARTrio (Under 25s)
The HARTrio showcases their influences of improvised music jazz and contemporary styles.
They played together for the first time in 2019 when there was an instant and undeniable connection with their individualistic styles beautifully complementing each other.
Together they present an evocative repertoire interpreting compositions by artists who have strongly inspired with fluid narratives and soundscapes painting concepts of motion-stillness through a play of consonant-dissonant harmonies.
