Geröly Virtual Trio: Time Torn Into Rags at Opus Jazz Club

Gergő Kováts - saxophone
Péter Ajtai - double bass
Tamás Sándor Geröly - drums, percussion

This similarity fundamentally stems from our devotion to free jazz. While we are all aware of our cultural heritage, we can also move away from it and step out into the realm of the unknown...

The members of the trio are representatives of different generations, which also ensures that the team’s music and spirit remain always free. “Traditionally radical. Radically traditional” sounds their self-defintion in the inner cover of their freshly released album on Hunnia Recrods.
