In Her Footsteps, the latest album of the Martin Listabarth Trio, invites the listener into the enchanting world of contemporary jazz.
Formed of Martin Listabarth (piano and composition), Gidi Kalchhauser (bass) and Sebastian Simsa (drums), the trio continues the musical journey begun with their older projects, such as Postcards and Dedicated.
The opening track, The Call of the Unknown, introduces the listener to the colorful and rhythmic world of the Martin Listabarth Trio. Throughout the album, we are transported into a whimsical atmosphere, experiencing from euphoria to nostalgia.
Martin Listabarth’s writing style moves between contemplative and soft pieces such as in The River Knows and Echoes in the Dust, and more playful, joyful compositions including Invisible Walls, Quick Shift.
In Her Footsteps is a splendid album that revisits instrumental jazz in all its glory, leaving us eager to hear more from the trio.
The Martin Listabarth Trio is currently on tour, with concerts at the Theater am Spittelberg in Vienna, Austria, on 21 August 2026 and at the Jazzforum Bayreuth in Germany, on 23 October 2026. For the full of tour dates, click here: Martin Listabarth Trio tour dates).
