"Following in the traditions of Chick Corea and Keith Jarrett, we find Markus Gottschlich ready to emerge as the next great pianist for a new generation."-CriticalJazz

Led by Austrian-American pianist, composer and Steinway Artist Markus Gottschlich, this exciting Trio has taken Florida by storm with 3-time Grammy Winner Jose Javier Freire on drums from Puerto Rico and 2-time Latin Grammy Winner Rodner Padilla on bass from Venezuela.
Rodner Padilla won his second Latin Grammy in 2014, with his Venezuelan group "C4 Trio", while J.J. Freire was a founding member of the popular Latin-American group "Bacilos", which won a total of 3 Grammies. Meeting in the global hub and melting pot of Miami, this Trio draws from the Caribbean and South-American Folklore just as much as from Straight-Ahead Jazz and European Classical Music. The result is an extremely dynamic and versatile group with a highly individual sound.
