Details:
''In fact, it was Wilson who provided what may have been the highlight of the Festival when he performed with his Trio in the Holy Trinity Cathedral. The sheer majestic quality of this band’s music is astounding, and, in the vast surroundings of the Cathedral, Wilson’s soaring tenor took on a spiritual quality, reaching all the way back to Coltrane. With an unlikely instrumentation of guitar, accordion and saxophone, the Trio gently added subtle textures to the mix, creating a music that seemed to be full of air and light. Stephen Grant’s accordion floated dreamlike through the space, while Stephen Magnusson’s guitar pierced the veil, intelligent and thoughtful. Solos were few and far between, but when Wilson did set off, his tenor soared to the upper reaches of the Cathedral, filling the church to overflowing. It was a remarkable performance, full of such intimacy and telepathic communion.''
Rhythms Magazine review of the 2007 Wangaratta Jazz Festival
''This is dreamy music for dreamy people. Over the past three years the music of saxophonist Julien Wilson, guitarist Stephen Magnusson and accordionist Stephen Grant has become dreamier as it has evolved.
They also play more softly, the role-playing between the instruments is more egalitarian and they are more inclined to luxuriate in rubato passages, as with Magnusson''s introductions to Song For Jay and (briefly) Clube da Esquina #2 and the whole band''s rendering of the gorgeous Rebellious Bird.
The softness means the nylon-string guitar does not need to be amplified way out of its natural dynamic range and even allows Wilson to set up the rhythm of Blessed just by popping the keys on his tenor like a percussion instrument. It also means that the music is less a matter of saxophone solos with accompaniment and more a constant intricate interaction capped by that magnificent tenor.''
