Noble–Slavík–Clarvis Trio
The trio of Noble–Slavík–Clarvis features Czech double-bassist Jiří Slavík in collaboration with two generation-older English musicians—pianist Liam Noble and percussionist Paul Clarvis—whose duo recordings had a major impact on Slavík since the times when he first met them as a student of the Royal Academy of Music in London. Their first trio album entitled Nostalgia is thus a partial return to the past—that’s why besides original music it contains arrangements of pieces by George Gershwin and Charles Mingus, as well as surprising cover versions of world-famous songs like “It’s a Long Way To Tipperary” or the “Beer Barrel Polka.” Together they create a purely acoustic music deeply based on the jazz tradition and yet transformed in a way that would reflect the present, as well as lead into a possible future evolution of this genre.
