As the only representative of Bavarian Beer Hall Music, this album rates an easy "5". Classics such as "Walder-Marsch" and "Blaue Augen" will bring tears to any respectable Bavarian's eyes, and the medely of Marlene Deitrich songs is not to be missed! A must for anyone planning an Oktoberfest party!

In the Bavarian Alps just an hour away from München (Munich) there is a small monestary, Andechs, perched on a hill. You can reach it by 'subway' from downtown. During "Bock Bier Zeit" the monks fast, subsisting only on the dark brown beer brewed from the sludge at the bottom of the barrels. Is it any wonder they have 'visions'? This album gives you the perfect introduction to the unique and festive culture of the Bavarians.

Their first CD, “First Enchantment” received fabulous critics in Germany as well as abroad and was nominated for the "Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik". The second CD "Away For A While" stayed in the German International Jazz Charts for over 6 Month. Triosence now got featured in the biggest German Magazines like Stern, FAZ, JazzThing, Jazz Podium, Piano News, a.o.
Triosence is not only the name but also describes the concept of the band. The “trio-essence” lies within the emancipation of piano, bass and drums. It’s achieved by Bernhard Schüler’s original compositions and by the strong individuality of the three musicians. Each instrument can take the lead.Thus, they have a much wider spectrum of sound than traditional trios normally have.
What characterizes the music of Triosence the most is its emphasis on the melodies and their clarity. They are very lyrical and that creates the core of almost all the original compositions. Stylistically the music of Triosence has no limits. There are influences of Jazz, Fusion, Folk and World. This convinces not only connoisseurs of jazz music, but also people having little relation to jazz.
   
The music is a mix between Jazz, Folk, World and Fusion. The instruments of the members are equals which permits a large spectrum of compositions. The whole music is made by themselves and is influenced by Bill Evans Trio, Keith Jarrett, Hubert Nuss, John Taylor, Ahmad Jamahl, Peter Erskine, Jack DeJohnette and Zakir Hussain. Many critics describes the music as lyrical, poetic and dreamy.
