The trio, led by Japanese vibraphonist Taiko Saito and her experienced Berlin colleagues, first took to the stage in 2021. Their debut album focused on freely improvised music. For their second recording, they will turn their attention to tradition. At Jazz im TiF, they will perform works by jazz vibraphone legends such as David Friedman, Mike Mainieri, and Gary Burton. The WALD Trio will rearrange these pieces and juxtapose them with their own compositions, conceived as a kind of musical response. Immediately following their Jazz im TiF concert, they will head into the studio.
