The Narcís Vidal Trio was created in 1996, with the intention to develop their own language inspired in the world traditional music.
The original compositions explore the origins of folklore, using the rhythmic treasures of many countries such as Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, North America, as well as Spain and Catalonia.
This popular material is the base to create, from a jazz and modern point of view, the sonority of a trio formed by a guitar, a double bass and drums.
The risky character of it, is shared by three musicians whose interaction and constant research are based on a common need of evolution and communication.

…from classical harmonies and arrangements towards bolder fusion, outline the rhythmic and melodic inspiration of this musician from Barcelona with experience in many festivals, such as Köhln, Leverkusen, Barcelona…the trio confirmed in Sabadell that they can sail major spaces, and that the interaction of three talents always gives brilliant results.

NARCIS VIDAL TRIO
"Monster's Gallery"


Vidal’s Project is risky, for it is nor classic nor modern, but has personality, and skilfully reaches fusion with traditional music from Central and South America.

NARCIS VIDAL TRIO
"Monster's Gallery"


The sound is a luxury of simplicity.
We only listen three instruments (drums, double bass and guitar) but they fill every song with a clear and warm sound.
….A special attention to the transparency of Narcis Vida’sl guitar and the smoothness of his phrasing.
…Song after song, this CD gradually catches you.
…within a constant line in style and arrangements, “Monster’s Gallery” presents a great variety of musical concepts.
