THE BAD PLUS

For more than ten years The Bad Plus has been ignoring jazz conventions. Aside from original compositions the trio plays variations on Nirvana and David Bowie, as well as Ligeti and Gershwin. With their eccentric attitudes and energetic performances these three Americans have conquered an exceptional position in the music world. The Bad Plus has become a model for young piano trios all over the world. ‘By any standards, jazz or otherwise, it is moving, mighty music’ (Rolling Stone).
