The trio Ek, Landgren and Spjuth represents three different approaches to music making, where the meeting point between different musical worlds and the urge to let this meeting change and complete the musical approach form the starting point for this concert programme. An exciting musical combination is the result of this meeting, where curiosity and joy of music making are fundamental driving forces behind this musical experience.
