Biography
Along their classical training and other small musical engagements, the three musicians from Gjakova (Kosovo) have always maintained a well-refined collection of traditional Albanian repertoire, and in the last few years they have developed quite a unique style with elements of jazz delivered through sophisticated arrangements.
It is out of their deep affinity to their inexhaustible collection of folk songs, traditional coloratura and typical Eastern European rhythms that they make possible, thanks to their musical curiosity and virtuoso performance, that well-known songs from Kosovo are heard again, of which their trio is a true representative. It is no surprise that they are now attracting more and more attention.

Përkrah edukimit klasik dhe angazhimeve të tjera muzikore, të tre muzikantët nga Gjakova kanë mbajtur gjithnjë një koleksion të rafinuar të repertorit tradicional shqiptar, dhe në vitet e fundit ata kanë zhvilluar një stil mjaft unik me elemente xhazi dhe të përpunuara me orkestrime të sofistikuara. Është prej afinititetit të thellë ndaj koleksionit të tyre të pasosur të këngëve popullore, koloraturës tradicionale dhe ritmeve tipike europianolindore që ata bëjnë të mundur, falë kuriozitetit të tyre muzikor dhe performancave të tyre virtuoze, që këngë të mirënjohura shqiptare mund të dëgjohen përsëri, këngë të cilat e kanë këtë trio si përfaqësues të vërtetë. Nuk është befasi që sot ata po tërheqin gjithnjë e më shumë vëmendje.
