Johannes Enders, Renato Chicco, Jorge Rossy
This organ trio formed in 2019 around the Italian-Slovenian organist Renato Chicco, the German tenor saxophonist Johannes Enders and the Spanish drummer Jorge Rossy set out in search of their own sound aesthetic. All three protagonists are deeply rooted in the jazz tradition, but are wide open to influences of the most diverse colours. Renato Chicco, who studied at Berklee College in Boston and New York, is one of the most sought-after soloists and most experienced accompanists in his field. He has played with jazz legends such as Lionel Hampton, Freddie Hubbard and Woody Shaw, to name but a few. Thanks to his own projects Enders Room/Enders Dome and collaborations with musicians as diverse as Micha and Markus Acher (The Notwist, Tied & Tickled Trio), Nils Petter Molvaer, Karl Ratzer and Billy Hart, Johannes Enders can be counted among the most experimental musicians on the European scene. The trio is completed by the Spanish master drummer Jorge Rossy, who has caused an international furore through his long-standing membership of the Brad Mehldau Trio.
