Triste

Track from the album Strange Bird by Pete Canter's Sky Ensemble. Described by listeners as “dreamy and joyful” Pete’s highly original, folk-inflected contemporary jazz for cello and jazz quartet. Melodic, lyrical and essentially groovy with open modal harmonies, strong rhythms and great tunes. Pete Canter – soprano saxophone, Lucy Welsman – cello, Matt Johns – piano, Jim Rintoul – double bass, Gary Evans – drums.
