Das Sebastiaan Cornelissen Trio, bestehend aus drei der hochkarätigsten holländischen Musiker: Pianist Rob van Bavel, dem Bassvirtuosen Frans Vollink und Drummer Sebastiaan Cornelissen.
Cornelissen tritt hier als Komponist von Stücken in Erscheinung, die am ehesten in die Kategorie moderner Elektro-Jazz passen – facettenreich und inspiriert von Musik außerhalb des Jazz-Kosmos. Klare Strukturen, schnörkellose Linien, ohne dabei Melodien und vor allem eine ordentliche Portion Groove aus den Augen (und Ohren) zu lassen.
Der dichte, energiegeladene Sound spiegelt die enge Verbundenheit zwischen den drei Musikern wider; ausdrucksstark und dynamisch vermag er auch eingefleischte Nicht-Jazz-Hörer in seinen Bann zu ziehen.
Alle Mitglieder des Trios blicken auf eine Vielzahl von namhaften Co-Musikern zurück: Randy Brecker, Jim Beard, Gary Willis, Gary Husband, Steve Hunt, Wayne Johnson, Susan Weinert, Scott Kinsey, Tom Kennedy, Gerard Presencer, Hadrien Feraud, Alex Machacek, Damian Erskine – um nur einige zu nennen.
