One, two, three … piano! A trio for the Trio in Sofia
Performed in the honour, firstly, of the three EU Council presidencies, shared between Spain, Belgium and Hungary, and, secondly, the Jef Neve Trio and their Belgian jazz. On 5 July, pianist and composer Jef Neve, bass player Ruben Samama and percussionist Teun Verbruggen gave an amazing concert in Sofia at the start of the Belgian Presidency of the EU Council.
In a concert lasting one and a half hours, their infectious enthusiasm and masterly performance won over an audience that did not just include jazz enthusiasts. "It is always great fun to play for people who you know are on a musical voyage of discovery", Jef Neve stated at the end of the show. It was one of the first concerts for the trio in Eastern Europe.
