About the Trio
Bach meets jazz. The Jazz-Tempered Trio is New Zealand’s premier exponent of classical-jazz fusion, giving the music of the Baroque masters, primarily Johann Sebastian Bach, the jazz treatment.
Conceived in the comfortable surroundings of the Backbencher Pub and Café in Wellington, New Zealand, and with more than a nod to the unique style of Jacques Loussier, the Jazz-Tempered Trio play all the favourite classics, spiced up with the mellow sounds of free and easy jazz.
