May 6 at All Souls at Sundown:

Aaron Goldberg, piano
Omer Avital, bass • Ali Jackson, drums

 

"One of jazz’s most delectable trios...a superlative group [which has] forged a singular sound with an expansive textural palette and a tenaciously intuitive approach to shaping material on the bandstand. Gorgeous, one of the era's definitive piano trios...Goldberg possesses exceptional technique and taste."

—The Boston Globe

"Selfless in all the right ways. Doesn’t set out to demonstrate virtuosity, speed, or heat, though all three are at his disposal. He’s versatile and impressive, and he swings hard."

—The New York Times
