Benaud Trio celebrate their 20th anniversary year with the release of Oblivion on De la Catessen Records. Oblivion is their sixth studio album since bursting into the world in 2005 with the irresistible fusion of playfulness and professionalism that has characterized their career. Oblivion boasts all the pizazz that made Benaud Trio's previous albums like Mixtape (ABC Classic) and Bohemian Rhapsody (Melba Recordings) so popular, framed by a thoughtful selection of pieces that showcases them at their electrifying best. Chick Corea's modern classic "Spain" leaps out of the timeless classical melody of Rodrigo's "En Aranjeuz con tu Amor," in a fiery arrangement for piano trio by Nicholas Buc. "Closer" by Mark Isaacs was originally created for jazz quintet, and appears here in a warm and lyrical adaptation that sees Benaud Trio carrying its smooth sensibilities into the classical realm. Their readings of Piazolla's "Cuatro Estaciones Porteñas" and "Oblivion" are a smoldering account of his stylistic crucible of tango, jazz, and classical music. Benaud Trio have long been known for their alchemy onstage, fusing disparate qualities together: endurance and youthfulness; sincerity and lightness; playfulness and insight. In Oblivion, Benaud Trio are in their element, exploring fusion of the musical kind, through pieces by composers who share some of the same rare qualities as them.
