ABOUT AVANTRIO
In 2003, Peruvian percussionist Jorge “Coqui” Perez-Albela came up with the idea of forming a trio with two good musician friends: Argentinean vocalist, Sofia Rei Koutsovitis and Peruvian bassist, Jorge Roeder.
The three of them moved to the US seeking to learn jazz and improvisation. In the process of digging deep into the music, they found the source of their sound and much more. Avantrio has come full circle into their roots, but this time with a refreshed perspective.
The initial goal was to perform the music of Peruvian composers such as Chabuca Granda, Felipe Pinglo, Nicomedes, Santa Cruz; introducing it to a new audience.
Their unique instrumentation - upright bass, percussion and vocals - three organic, raw instruments - created a new sound where space added a new dimension. The Avantrio project soon evolved from its initial all-Peruvian acoustic trio concept into a melánge of South American folk styles from Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela and Uruguay. Their new goal is to complete a series of original compositions that will be part of Avantrio’s first recording project.
Spontaneity, communication and joy are always present in Avantrio’s performances, fostered by a mutual deep trust. After years playing, writing, traveling and jamming with musicians from all over the world, this journey continues as they are constantly discovering and reinventing who they are.
