Description

Take Off Collective members Ole Mathisen (sax), Matthew Garrison (bass) and Marko Djordjevic (drums) became friends at Boston’s Berklee College of Music as the second millennium was winding down. Since then, they have built careers as bandleaders; sidemen to world renown notables as well as unique and innovative instrumentalist. 

Their eclectic tastes, penchant for honest and unpremeditated improvisation and a thirty-year strong friendship brought them to a musical situation different from any other they have taken part in to date. 

Neither leaders nor sidemen, they are real-time composers and performers of music that is invented on stage in front of an audience. Their music has been described as virtuosic, adventurous, intense, innovative, disorienting, provocative, engaging… 

Each Take Off Collective concert is a moment ceasing, supremely intimate, music-transcending event.

3 for the Road:   CD Release Celebration!
Jay Clayton, Ed Neumeister & Gary Versace, in tribute to Fritz Pauer

Magic in music, especially in improvisatory music, happens when everybody totally trusts each other so the individuals merge into a separate living organism. Egos evaporate and the ensemble “creates”
in the moment.

The 3 FOR THE ROAD trio with Jay, Fritz and Ed embodies such an organism. This recording features and is dedicated to the late great Austrian pianist Fritz Pauer.
