"History: From 1990 until 1997 Jorrit led “Trio Jorrit Dykstra”, with bassist Mischa Kool and British drummer Steve Argüelles. He wrote most of the compositions, but the band also played some of Argüelles’ tunes, as well as sparkling versions of pieces by Thelonious Monk, Ornette Coleman, Herbie Nichols, the Beatles and Balkan traditionals, all giving space for some adventurous improvising. The trio created a fresh and original group sound in which melody, rhythm, colour, subtility and equality were the most important values. All this was mixed with an exciting drive and a touch of satire. The Trio released three CDs, and they performed extensively on the European clubs and festivals circuit, as well as on radio and TV. Clarinettist Marty Ehrlich, reed player Lothar Ohlmeier, pianist Benoît Delbecq, guitarist Marc Ducret and string player Stuart Hall were featured as guest artists with the Trio. They also accompanied a series of silent movies from the beginning of this century." (Jorritdijkstra.com)
