Trio Ex Nihilo/The Blooming w/Jeff Song (cello), Taylor Ho Bynum (cornet), Curt Newton (drums), Tom Hall (sax), Dave Bryant (host/keys).

In 2001, Trio Ex Nihilo, led by cellist Jeff Song, with drummer Curt Newton and cornetist Taylor Ho Bynum, recorded their debut album on Buzz Records [tracks of the original trio album can be found on Spotify] and performed in the Asian American Jazz Festival in Chicago. Three years later, Song, Newton, and saxophonist Tom Hall formed the jazz trio The Blooming. This “Third Thursdays” concert will celebrate the 25th anniversary of Trio Ex Nihilo’s debut recording and will be the first performance combining both groups, with the addition of "Third Thursdays" series host Dave Bryant on keyboards. The creativity and originality of these veteran free jazz musicians will be in full force during January’s installment in the long-running monthly “Third Thursdays” harmolodic jazz series.

Dave Bryant notes, “In my 2013 recording The Garden of Equilibria, I realized it was a secret weapon to incorporate The Blooming trio of Jeff, Tom, and Curt into a larger ensemble. It’s always a pleasure to reconnect with them, and this will be my first collaboration with Taylor, whose work I’ve long admired.”

Admission at the door: $10 (cash / check / charge / Venmo).  Complimentary “Third Thursdays” concert parking is available at the Everett Street Garage at 10 Everett Street in Cambridge. “Third Thursdays” harmolodic jazz concerts are made possible by the generous support of the Appalachian Springs Foundation.
