JAZZ JAM | GRIGORIS THEODORIDIS TRIO

THE GRIGORIS THEODORIDIS TRIO IS A PROJECT LED BY DOUBLE BASSIST AND COMPOSER GRIGORIS THEODORIDIS, A PRO‐ LIFIC ARTIST IN THE GREEK JAZZ SCENE. THE TRIO HAVE RECENTLY RECORDED THEIR FIRST ALBUM, TITLED GREEN OF SILENCE WHICH WAS RELEASED IN MAY 2023 BY IRIDA MUSIC. THE ALBUM’S SIX COMPOSITIONS TRACE THEODORIDIS’ MUSICAL PATH FROM THE HAGUE TO ATHENS WITH SEVERAL IN‐ TERMEDIATE STOPS ALONG THE WAY. THE SOUND OF THE NEW YORK AND TOKYO JAZZ SCENES WEAVE A WEB WITHIN WHICH THE EXPRESSIVENESS OF THE SOUNDS OF LATIN AMERICA AND THE MYSTERIOUS CHARM OF THE FAR EAST ARE ENTANGLED. VARIOUS MU‐ SICAL EXPERIENCES ARE REFLECTED IN BOLD IMPROVISATIONS THAT GIVE BREATH TO SI‐ LENCE, GROUNDEDNESS TO MELODY, SPACE TO NOISE. NICK THESSALONIKEFS (DRUMS) AND KUAN YU CHEN (PIANO), FELLOW TRAVEL‐ ERS IN THE GRIGORIS THEODORIDIS TRIO BRING EXPERIENCE AND SPONTANEITY, IM‐ PROVISATIONAL FREEDOM AND INSPIRATION, GRACING US WITH ENCHANTING INFLUENCES FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE WORLD THAT ACCOMPANY THIS JAZZ MUSICAL JOURNEY.
