Conversations of Hope is the third album from Jasper Hoiby's 3Elements
piano trio, featuring Naima Acuna on drums and Xavi Torres on piano.
At the centre is Jasper Hoiby , a composer and bandleader whose international
reputation was shaped through Phronesis, the influential group formed in 2005 that
redefined expectations of the modern piano trio. That grounding in structure, risk and
collective momentum sits at the core of this project.The music moves fast and hits
hard, shaped by clear melodic ideas, shifting time signatures and an acute sense of
space. Acuna's precise, driving detail and Torres' harmonically focused piano
language connect tightly with Hoiby's bass- led writing, creating music that feels
urgent, physical and alert to every change in direction. Conversations of Hope ,
released on Edition Records , reflects a composer and bandleader refining intensity,
interaction and ensemble focus with clarity and purpose.
Jasper Hoiby: double bass
Xavi Torres: piano
Naima Acuna: drums
