Tobias Schirmer: tenor sax, clarinet
Daniel Meyer: guitar
Finlay Panter: drums

Firmly rooted in contemporary improvised music, the trio works with a clear and unadorned approach. Their sound develops through close listening, sparse materials, and an attention to how form can emerge without being fixed in advance.

Interaction guides the music: silence is treated as a structural element, rhythm appears in shifting pulses rather than steady patterns, and melody functions more as a contour than a theme.
Decisions are taken in the moment, shaped by proximity, dynamics, and the changing balance between the instruments.

The result is a practice that remains open, precise, and responsive. Each performance traces a provisional architecture, built from texture and gesture, allowing the music to remain grounded while leaving space for constant redefinition.

The Trios first album will be released on 4 February 2026 on AUTRECORDS.
