Pneuma (CH)
Jazz
Daniel McAlavey - piano
Martin Wyss - double bass
Lucas zibulski - drums
Pneuma is, in a sense, a classic jazz trio—piano, double bass, and drums—and the love for this format and the musical journeys it allows for is one defining aspect of their playing. But more than that, the three musicians connect through a shared perspective on music, a dedication to blending together through sound, and a blind trust in musical moments. Their striving as a band is aligned with the music that wants to be played and heard in that very moment. To help with that, their compositions serve as sturdy vehicles for explorations into their own musical realm.
This foundation allows them to combine a variety of musical idioms, bringing their own sound into the world, which could be described as a form of lyrical jazz with impressionistic tendencies, with a palpable love for songs, and a dose of minimal music.
