"The thing about knowing rules in music is that you can then break them in creative and purposeful ways. That’s been key to Jeremy Bleich’s wide-ranging musical practice for decades. The New Mexico-residing educator, composer, improviser and multi-instrumentalist brings a ton of traditions to the table with Glass Key Trio, including Arabic, Balkan and American folk music, as well as contemporary art music and the particular elegant strain of blues-schooled music that soundtracks film noir... The sounds are cool, but the group interaction, in and around the interstices of the compositional framework, is what really makes it come alive — the music is almost like a fourth player whom the other three are playing off of as they conjure it into being."
