The debut collaborative album & launch tour hits Brisbane 11 July Sydney 23 July Melbourne 27 August. TOPOLOGY+ MISINTERPROTATO- Healthy

What happens when you put two of Australia's most inventive bands together, one taking a
completely fresh look at the classic jazz piano trio, the other reinventing chamber music?
You get music like no other - music that sounds like right now, with infectious grooves and
seductive melodies, taking the best from a plethora of influences.

Topology is recognised as one of Australia's leading new music groups. Their energetic,
full-blooded sound continues to invigorate and reward listeners with it's progessive
approach to contemporary classical music, sometimes though unexpected collaborations,
including a performance this year by the renowned Brodsky Quartet to play the ballet music
of Elivs Costello. Combining violin, viola, saxophone, piano and double bass their music is
restless and inventive and is the perfect match for Australia's most forward thinking jazz trio.

Misinterprotato is a piano, bass and drums trio is known for forging new paths for
contemporary jazz in Australia and internationally. While complex, textural and dynamic, their
music is also instantly accessible.

Their debut collaborative album HEALTHY is just that, the heathly combination of like musical
minds. It consists of a blend of works from composers in each ensemble and the result is breathtaking.

One could compare it to the sounds minimalist sounds of Michael Nyman, Terry Riley and Steve Reich, with a touch of Astor Piazolla, and the modern jazz influences of Pat Metheny. Wrap this up in the visual, cinematic style of Bernard Hermann and the Cinematic Orchestra and you're getting close. These influences combine to create a sound that is incomparable not only in Australia, but internationally.
