The Foreign In Us by ES Trio released on Relative Pitch Records in 2024.

After a wonderful concert at the Elastic Arts Foundation, Chicago, the ES Trio (Kwan/Zerang/Steyer), decided to record their music to document this inspiring collaboration. In their trio work they focused on sound oriented pieces, that were nurtured by the individual approaches to their instruments. The duo works of Zerang and Steyer also reflect the work of Steyer concerning instrumental ornamentation, that is inspired by the multi-ethnic, mostly Near Eastern sounds of the streets in Berlin.

New #review today: "#EvilJoe is a trio of seasoned improvisers featuring a unique combination of instruments. On clarinet we have German #EdithSteyer, who has a fairly substantial body of work as a jazz saxophonist. #VojtaDrnek is a Czech pianist here playing “prepared accordion,” which seems to be augmented by some electronics. Rounding out the trio is bassist #KellenMills, whom we have encountered with his excellent ensemble Tryon." #ExppseOnline #ImprovisedMusic http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/evil-joe-into-the-dark-2.html
