Digital Booklet

"... Vallon and his trio joins an elite group of piano trios that, despite a clear reverence for what has come before, focus more decidedly on what's to come."
- All About Jazz
"Vallon’s own compositions straddle the line between cool jazz and chamber music in a way that seems effortless ... the performance suggests that, as noteworthy as this album is, Vallon’s trio could’ve shown up without a script and still had something to say."
- JazzTimes.com
Rruga meaning path, road or journey in Albanian, is the evocative title of this ECM debut by the trio of pianist Colin Vallon, bassist Patrice Moret and drummer Samuel Rohrer. After shared musical experiences on the Swiss jazz scene, they began their trio journey and have grown into one of Europe’s most promising bands, shaping a rugged and individual music, inspired by songs and singers, by the music of the Caucasus region as well as by the jazz tradition. Challenging conventions of the modern jazz piano trio, the instrumentalists meet on equal terms as the music is created, arranged and developed collectively.
