about

Celebrated drum and cymbal artist Bernie Arai and renowned jazz pianist Chris Gestrin explore the Japanese aesthetic principle of shibusa in their project Wabi. Long time musical compatriots in numerous other ensembles, they reference the well-worn piano trio format but remove the bass to create duets which connote incompleteness, sparse quietude and the beauty of imperfection.
