Rempis/Adasiewicz/Corsano

BlueStem Jazz presentation Improvisational Supergroup Rempis/Adasiewicz/Corsano The trio, considered a supergroup in this niche genre, is headed by alto sax player Dave Rempis and features two other players who are noted in this arena: vibraphonist Jason Adasiewicz and drummer Chris Corsano. Most musicians in this genre have laundry lists of collaborations a mile long, and these guys are no exception. They came together as Rempis/Adasiewicz/Corsano during a residency Rempis hosted in Chicago in September 2024; Rempis had worked with both in earlier configurations. But during that residency they felt a special spark and decided to continue as a trio, going on to record their first project Dial Up, released just recently. “while all three command broad and unique palettes on their instruments, there’s never a feeling that technical dazzle takes the place of musicality. Every motion is in service to the evolution and development of the spontaneous sound they bring forth.”
