Trio Corsano Butcher Stoffner

  • Bernt Ankersgate 4 Oslo Norway (map)

"A musical personificaton of life ... The album is a lesson in philosophy, communication and

poetry.“

Martin Schray


“Three men who are quite capable of lifting the roof, should they choose to. But each of them

has always had an instinct for delicacy, for the overtone over the moment of attack, and for the

spaces between sounds. Corsano’s rhythms, even when playing free, are like spider webs on a

misty morning. Butcher is a master of the subtle overtone, the accidentals (which, of course, he

can control precisely) that surround the tones and come back off the walls and the audience.

Stoffner has the same precision of touch and sense of absolute detail. The guitar famously was

the instrument that allowed untutored use to pick a chord and go twang, but it’s also an

instrument of extraordinary sophistication, laden with secret sounds: sighing, plinking like a

music box, muscling out big chords.”
