Assonance

This trio came together in 2021 with the clear vision of creating a unique chamberlike trio sound.

The approach to this music is to highlight the usual, the everyday life. That's why their first album that was released in March 2023 was called "Practical Matters".

Assonance tells instrumental stories about topics like dull work days, cosy evenings at home or getting by with inevitable things in life - all of them something that belong to our everyday life. They think it is comforting to know that we are all in this together - waking up every day and coping with everything that life brings along.

The music of Assonance is intimate, sometimes fragile, spacious and introspective. It gives the listener a chance just to be in the moment and to experience a musical environment where time goes slower or even stops for a moment.

They have played concerts in Switzerland and in Estonia and are going to play a little tour in Spring 2024 in France, Switzerland and Italy.
