Vision Of Sound Records' latest release The Occasional Trio Live In Berlin features The Occasional Trio in explosive form recorded over two nights at the Schlot Jazz Club in Berlin. Their finest, most dynamic music to date! The Occasional Trio is led by UK-based pianist/composer Simon Vincent (b 1967), whose music has been described as "an immersive experience", "visionary and expressive", "rich and surprising", "exquisite", "mesmerising", "transcendental, yet unshakably earthbound". "...'m thrilled to present to you this new album by The Occasional Trio, recorded live at the Schlot Jazz Club in Berlin, Germany. These recordings are taken from our two latest concerts, and as well as live versions of many compositions recorded on 'Opening Lines' (VOSCD-001), they feature 4 new works: 'Blues in Fink', a mid-tempo blues to open, dedicated to curator Katharina Fink; 'Carousel', a lyrical up-tempo tune about the cycles of life; 'Sweedad's Pastry', a bop-type blues dedicated to wonderful and unique bassist Mike Harris, opening the second set; and 'Every Moment of Every Day', a short ballad in memory of a friend most dear..."
