YIORGOS BERERIS TRIO

BASED IN ROTTERDAM, GREEK PIANIST AND COMPOSER YIORGOS BERERIS CRAFTS A UNIQUE SOUND ROOTED IN THE FOLK TRADITIONS OF GREECE, THE BALKANS, AND CONTEMPORARY JAZZ. HE HAS EMERGED AS ONE OF THE UPCOMING VOICES IN THE EUROPEAN WORLD AND JAZZ MUSIC SCENE, PRESENTING HIS MUSIC AT VENUES AND FESTIVALS ACROSS GREECE, GERMANY, THE NETHERLANDS, BELGIUM, SPAIN, ROMANIA, AND SERBIA. RECENTLY HE RELEASED HIS THIRD PERSONAL ALBUM SEA IN COMMON WHICH WAS WRITTEN THROUGHOUT HIS TRAVELS AROUND THE MEDITERRANEAN AND THE BALKANS. THIS WORK WAS INSPIRED BY RECURRING COMMON SOUNDSCAPES: FESTIVE MUSIC, CITY NOISE, THE SOUNDS OF NATURE, AND OF EVERYDAY LIFE; AS WELL AS BY ENCOUNTERS WITH PEOPLE WITH WHOM NO COMMON LANGUAGE IS SPOKEN, YET CONNECTION AND RESONANCE EMERGE.
