Description
[Machine Translation] TRIPLET'S Debut Album by Drummer Yu Kudo" Masahisa Segawa (Jazz Critic) The debut album of TRIPLET'S, a trio led by drummer Yu Kudo, has been completed. Although there have been countless trio albums released under the name of a pianist in the recent piano boom, the sound of TRIPLET'S is different from those of other trios, even though they are the same piano, bass, and drums trio. The group was formed in February 2008 by Yu Kudo, Naotaka Kusunoki on piano, and Yutaka Kido on bass. The three members share the same blood type AB and the same zodiac sign, Pisces, and have always felt a great rapport with each other, even though they have different musical backgrounds and musical interests. Since the formation of the group, they have organized live performances once or twice a month, and the three of them have been playing original songs together to expand their repertoire and make the most of their individual personalities. They aim for a high degree of freedom in their performances. Yu Kudo himself describes his drumming as follows. I think the most attractive point of my drumming is the tone of the drums. I think I am one of the few drummers who pursue how good the sound can be without coasting on complicated and difficult performances, while using advanced techniques as a foundation. The Triplets' performances also make full use of the three drummers' distinctive and individualistic musicality, but they also pay attention to the selection of music, placing importance on making it easy to understand so that the audience can enjoy listening to music from a wide range of genres. All three are good-looking 30-somethings with a fashion sense and white shirts, and they aim to attract a wider audience than the conventional jazz listeners, such as single women in their 30s who are also working hard. The album contains 11 songs, and is a must-have for all jazz listeners. The rest of the songs range from standards, jazz, Beatles, and classical music, expressing the wide range of musicality that is the motto of the Triplets, with saxophone on two songs and vocals on one song. Performers: Yu Kudo: drums Naotaka Kusunoki: piano Utaka Kaido: bass Aya Kurosawa: vocals Chizuru Kashima: tenor saxophone
