Bohemian Trio

Bohemian Trio is one of the most respected groups in America. Their debut album Okonkolo shows that they are a true American voice: a fusion of cultures that create a new identity. Their unique blend of jazz harmony, classical lyricism and Latin dance is a reflection of their varied cultural and musical backgrounds. Yosvany Terry, a saxophonist and composer, and Orlando Alonso, a pianist and French-American cellist, were both born in Cuba. What is the difference between cello, piano, and sax? This unusual configuration was chosen by the group as a conscious decision to forgo traditional instrumentation in favor of improvising groups. It pays off in Okonkolo’s sound, which is both refined and edgy. http://www.innova.mu
