Elegy
25 februari 201713 tracks
Music can minister to minds diseased, pluck from the memory a rooted sorrow, raze out the written troubles of the brain, and with its sweet oblivious antidote, cleanse the full bosom of all perilous stuff that weighs upon the heart.

Press
“It is no exaggeration to state that Elegy is one of the best-sounding hi-res recordings of jazz or contemporary music in my collection. […] Any attempt to describe in words the clarity, transparency and warmth of TRPTK’s house sound must fall short.”
“Very wonderfully played and recorded. The sounds that Maya Fridman creates with her cello are so impressive, emotive and unique.”
“It all sounds exceptionally transparent, warm, and direct – simply a recording of absolute reference class.”
“As a result, rather than grabbing one by the lapels and shaking them for their attention, Aeon Trio have made a record that lures the listener in with a beckoning finger. A tearful siren’s song.”
“This is one of the most natural sounding recordings of cello, piano and bass I have ever heard!”
“The recording is amazing. [...] Quiet, thoughtful, calming- but this music is never “background.” But what do you call it? I call it uniquely involving, beautifully played, soul- touching music!”
“Amazing music that grips you from the first note and lever lets go. Recorded and mastered at a very high level. Highly recommended!”
“Magnificent interplay, pure harmony and sublimely performed.”
“Themes die out and are brought back to life, improvisations dripping on through. Classical and jazz are interconnected timelessly, as you sink deep into it with indefinable thoughts. Superb.”
