This is the last post of 2015 and, with Orrù, Mar, Rocha“Live at MIA 2015” (EndTitles) – we’re at the best of list compiled by Dave Foxall’s at A Jazz Noise.

The Orrù, Mar, Rocha trio was born at MIA, a big festival/meeting of improvised music at a Atouguia da Baleia a tiny city in Portugal by suggestion of Paulo Chagas – one of the festival’s curator and producer. It was a pleasure to play and we decided to keep it flowing, release that recording and play more.

Barcelona – December 2015

Vasco Trilla – drums
Àlex Reviriego – double bass
Luiz Rocha – soprano and bass clarinets

Here’s how it works:
1. pick a name out of a hat;
2. throw a four-sided dice to define if the musician is playing either solo, duo, trio or quartet;
3. back to the hat, pick the other names, if applied.

with:
Diego Caicedo – electric guitar
Pablo Galak – soprano sax
Miquel Jordá – sopranino sax
Pau Sola – cello
Sarah Claman – violin
Carlo Mezzino – piano
