About Prana Trio

Prana Trio was established to transfer this universal idea of breath into a format based around musical improvisation. Since 2003, the group has been dedicated to exploring original compositions and improvisations based on the texts of Rumi, Hafiz, Lao Tzu, Shankarcarya, Kabir, Issa as well as others. This ensemble has been recognized by reviewers across the globe as being one of the few truly unique and original groups on the music scene today. Described as “beautiful... magical..." by pianist Marilyn Crispell, the trio has released two albums: Pranam (2006) and After Dark (2004), both on Circavision Productions, and has performed throughout the United Staes and Germany.
