1. Helge Lien Trio....A few more for consideration:<br /><br />1. Helge Lien Trio. Norwegian trio that have more than a bit of EST to them. This year's (or on some release dates last year's) Hello Troll is highly recommended.<br /><br />2. Belgian Jef Neve's trio have released two excellent albums.<br /><br />3. Steve Kuhn Trio's Coltrane album from this year is also excellent.<br /><br />4. German Michael Wollny's trio known as [em] have produced three excellent albums. Wollny's various other projects are also worth checking out including his duo album with Joachim Kuhn.<br /><br />5. A couple of British trios worth looking out for: Geoff Eales Trio - their Master of the Game album is one of my favourites of this year. and Neil Cowley Trio.<br /><br />6. Stefano Bollani's "Danish" trio of this year is very good and bodes well. <br /><br />7. And last, but not least, the best band in the world at the moment is The Necks - Australian trio known for their long (typically 60 minutes) improvised pieces.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1601754535479665787.post-33334023597339449112009-10-11T13:11:53.412-04:002009-10-11T13:11:53.412-04:00I completely agree that this is a golden age of pi...I completely agree that this is a golden age of piano trios and I'm delighted to see the Mehldau trio at the top of the list. I'd like to suggest a few Europeans, if that's within the terms of reference.<br /><br />1. Enrico Pieranunzi Trio: Pieranunzi has recorded with various bassists and drummers but more often with Marc Johnson (b) and Joey Baron (d) than any other combination, as far as I can tell. Their double CD Live in Japan doesn't disappoint.<br /><br />2. John Taylor Trio: Taylor and bassist Palle Danielsson made several records for ECM in the 90s under the leadership of Peter Erskine. Under Taylor's name, with drummer Martin France, they've since made two superb albums for CAMjazz. Although I've heard Taylor play solo, I haven't heard the trio play live. I'd give my eye teeth, if I still had them.<br /><br />3. Marcin Waskilewski Trio: Manfred Eicher's production has sometimes seemed to keep pianists on too tight a leash. I think that's true of Tord Gustavsen (if you compare his live performances with his recorded output) and I'm hoping that it won't turn out to be the case with Stefano Bollani's "Danish" trio. However, Eicher seems to bring out the best in Wasilewski, or at least to fail to suppress it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1601754535479665787.post-14040158516361783032009-10-10T18:56:11.267-04:002009-10-10T18:56:11.267-04:00I would add two other trios to the list:

The recent release of his early work on Columbia by Mosaic and his lastest trio recording on Sunnyside testifies to the consistency of this underrated artist.<br /><br />2.
