Benny Greb and Turkish pianist Sabri Tulug Tirpan are known for their calculated and composed music that can become a little intricate at times.
Both musicians met whilst on a tour and while playing they realised, that the most beautiful moments in music occur in free passages, whilst improvising. />
Benny therefore made up his mind to invite Tirpan and - as a calm antidote - his old friend bassist Martin Stumpf into the recording studio for two days with the album title grown out of the fact, that it literally became a two-day jam session. Everything is in the flow. Arrangements were developed instantly instead of having scores, prepared compositions or conceptional frameworks.
No time to analyse, just a big space for intuition and interaction. All that makes the album Two Day Trio surprisingly diverse. It ranges from 'No.2's' metalesque sounding drums, to the sensitive inquiry-response cycle between drums and piano in 'No.7',whose rhythmic basis is reminiscent of a faraway standing, lonely metronome.
Two Day Trio is an album that reveals an unknown side of both artists.
