Larry Goldings / Peter Bernstein / Bill Stewart (USA)

In the mid 1990s, The New York Times described Larry Goldings, Peter Bernstein, and Bill Stewart as “the best organ trio of the last decade.” The trio, which has now been together for 36 years, has been recognised for charting new ground, with its synergistic playing, and thoughtful music. They have 14 recordings, all of which display their distinctive sound, whether exploring the depths of jazz standards, or playing their own original compositions. If it’s challenging to imagine a band with the kind of longevity that Goldings, Bernstein, and Stewart share, it’s even more rare to find one maintaining their brilliant level of musicianship and chemistry and that is not lost on the trio.

“We all really dig each other, and that's probably the most important thing,” Goldings says in an attempt to explain the trio’s indefinable chemistry. There’s a lot of crossover in what we like to play and listen to, and our individual visions of jazz tend to align. It’s hard to say, because we never really discuss it; we just try to make good records. We came up together.” Bernstein concurs. “I think we all share a pure feeling of gratitude. With these cats, I feel pressured to play my best because they’ve heard everything I can do. At the same time, I feel comfortable trying anything with them because I know whatever I do, they're going to hold it together. We’ve all grown through our individual experiences, but we always come back to this. And it's only getting better. 

"Individually, these three musicians are at the top of their respective fields. Together, they have become standard-bearers for the B-3 tradition.” - Bill Minkowski, Down Beat 2022

“There's something splendidly old school about this trio… In a world of bluff and bluster, they've stuck to the golden values of subtlety and swing, keeping their music fresh despite the passing of the decades.”– Andy Robson, JazzWise

”[W]hat struck me most was their consistent excellence as they evolved from promising 20-something aspirants to 50-something established masters.” - Ted Panken, Jazz Times

“Two of the best organ trios of the last decade have featured the same three players. Technically speaking, it’s just one group, variously billed as the Larry Goldings Trio (on several albums) or the Peter Bernstein Trio (on a recent DVD). Consisting of Mr.Goldings on organ, Mr. Bernstein on guitar and Bill Stewart on drums.”– Nate Chinen, The NewYork Times

“An authentic organ trio with all the size and scope of Mount Everest, and twice the cool”– Chip Stern, JazzTimes
