New York Trio - The Things We Did Last Summer

Classic standards performed by The New York Trio

Limited Edition 180-gram 2LP from the Venus Masterpiece Collection

The New York Trio is a combo of musicians firmly established in the East Coast jazz scene. The group is known for recording classic standards in a straightforward, post-bop style. Together, they are a successful force. But separately, they have also each reached their individual levels of success.

In his career, pianist Bill Charlap has played alongside jazz icons Tony Bennett, Benny Carter, and Gerry Mulligan, and has recorded a handful of well-received albums as a bandleader. Jay Leonhart, a bassist for the Trio, has also dabbled in vocals and songwriting and has performed with Marian McPartland, Louie Bellson, Lee Konitz, and many others. And drummer Bill Stewart has rubbed musical elbows on stage with jazz guitarist John Scofield, sax player Maceo Parker and R&B legend James Brown.
