The Dominic Alldis Trio was formed at the Oundle International Music Festival in 2013. Since then the trio have played over 100 concerts together across the UK and in Europe. All the arrangements are by the jazz & classical pianist Dominic Alldis. The original trio featured legendary ECM drummer Martin France. Martin sadly passed away in 2024 and his role was filled by one of his former students from the Royal Academy of Music, Justin Tambini. The third member of the trio is the former Ronnie Scott's bass player Andrew Cleyndert.
The trio explore the fusion of two musical worlds: classical and jazz. Taking inspiration from the Jacques Loussier Trio, Bill Evans Trio, Dave Brubeck Quartet and the Modern Jazz Quartet, the aim is to bring a fresh and contemporary approach to famous themes from classical music, opera and traditional folk songs.

The trio was fantastic... a totally new perspective on classical pieces I had been listening to for years.
