The Glass Key Trio explores original compositions inspired by Americana, Jazz, Classical, Folk, Balkan and Arabic music.
"The thing about knowing rules in music is that you can then break them in creative and purposeful ways. That’s been key to Jeremy Bleich’s wide-ranging musical practice for decades. The New Mexico-residing educator, composer, improviser and multi-instrumentalist brings a ton of traditions to the table with Glass Key Trio, including Arabic, Balkan and American folk music, as well as contemporary art music and the particular elegant strain of blues-schooled music that soundtracks film noir... The sounds are cool, but the group interaction, in and around the interstices of the compositional framework, is what really makes it come alive — the music is almost like a fourth player whom the other three are playing off of as they conjure it into being."
Glass Key Trio announces a new vinyl album, Sublingual, a collection of original music blending Jazz, Classical, Americana, Balkan and Arabic music and free improvisation.
