THE BAD PLUS

in cooperation with VPRO radio

Ethan Iverson-piano, Reid Anderson-bass, Dave King-drums

This year, The American piano trio The Bad Plus presented their first CD; ‘These are the Vistas’ and these are the reactions: ‘The first really new piano trio in a long time… If you want to know where jazz is heading, look here’ (The Washington Post). ‘When a band starts life at this level, there’s great hope ahead’ (The New York Times). ‘So, if this piano trio wants to play as loud as a rock band… well, let ‘em rip… these bad boys have the musicianship to back up for their attitude’ (The New Yorker). ‘Future Jazz starts here’ (JazzReview). This is the first concert of The Bad Plus in the Netherlands. Express your own opinion.
