Description

A jazz trio features three musicians—typically piano, bass, and drums—creating an intimate, conversational interplay where each voice remains distinctly audible. This format emphasizes spontaneous interaction and improvisation, allowing space for individual expression while maintaining tight ensemble cohesion. The stripped-down instrumentation highlights the pure essence of jazz dialogue, from contemplative ballads to energetic swing.
