Bill Frisell: Five

The American guitarist Bill Frisell has been true to one intimate chamber-music format – the trio – for 40 years. For the grand finale of his Reflektor Festival, two of his trio formations join forces to form a super-trio: the Bill Frisell Trio returns to the stage, along with the bassist Tony Scherr and the percussionist Kenny Wollesen. With those two musicians, Frisell has »the luxury of playing just about anything that comes into my head at any moment. This could be music from any of my albums, standard songs, folk songs or whatever. These guys really inspire me and challenge me every time we get together.«
