Formed in 1999, the Goodheart ­ Allen ­ Powell trio is a collaborative ensemble exploring both improvisational and compositional development. A highly rehearsed and disciplined group, special focus has been paid to rapid-fire interaction amidst a broad pallet of sonic, textural, and harmonic strucuring as well as historical reference. Their work ranges from timbral explorations to post-modern takes on free-jazz to Ives-like unifications of popular melodies and contemporary contexts.
