This rare double trio configuration brings together two pianists, two bassists and two drummers; the result is a multi-faceted collaboration with opportunities for various combinations of duos and trios as well as full group interaction. The music has its moments of abstraction, its moonlit soundscapes, but also embraces a jazzier aesthetic on the Monkish/Lacyish Night for Day. The two fantastic pianists who sparked this 2013 release, both winners of the Grand Prix du Disque for jazz, are Fred Hersch and Benoît Delbecq. In 2008 Hersch attended one of Delbecq's gigs in New York. Mutual fans who wanted to work together on something "novel and a bit outrageous,” Delbecq came up with the idea of a double trio.

Le Corbusier, nato Charles-Édouard Jeanneret (1887-1965), è conosciuto in tutto il mondo come l'architetto più influente del Ventesimo secolo. Dalle ville private, fino ai progetti di edilizia popolare, le sue idee radicali, i disegni e gli scritti rivoluzionarono completamente la struttura abitativa, ma soprattutto ridefinirono il concetto del moderno "abitare".

For the Swiss-born architect and city planner Le Corbusier (Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, 1887–1965), architecture constituted a noble art, an exalted calling in which the architect combined plastic invention, intellectual speculation, and higher mathematics to go beyond mere utilitarian needs, beyond "style," to achieve a pure creation of the spirit which established "emotional relationships by means of raw materials."
