The trio was formed in 2000 by János Nagy, Balázs Horváth, and István Baló. In 2001 they gave a memorable concert with tenor saxophone legend, David Murray at the Mediawave Festival. This concert was later voted by music critics of the Gramofon magazine as the Jazz Event of the Year. In 2002 Baló was replaced by Péter Szendőfi at the drums. In the same year they played with Dewey Redman, appeared with great success at the 12th Macau Jazz Festival, then in 2003 they welcomed on the stage of the Sziget Festival saxophonist Ben Castle. The members of the trio have been playing together for a long time, both Horváth and Szendőfi contributed to Nagy’s earlier projects. The trio plays compositions of the band leader permeated by the spirit of world music and jazz.
