Trio Brax is a chamber music ensemble based in Tromsø, Northern Norway. With the unusual combination of viola, tenor saxophone and piano, the trio represents a distinctive direction in the Norwegian chamber music tradition.
They have built their repertory in close collaboration with some of Norway’s leading contemporary composers. The result is playful without being experimental, as well as expressive and virtuosic on multiple levels. While classical music for regular piano trios traditionally points towards older works, the instrumentarium of Trio Brax is open to brand new sounds and musical landscapes.
Musicians:
Julia Neher, viola
Ola Asdahl Rokkones, tenor saxophone / tenor saxophone without mouthpiece
Sergej Osadchuk, piano
