Description
"An unusual and striking trio" (Philadelphia Inquirer), The Chance Trio is a one-of-a-kind Philadelphia-based acoustic trio. Started in 2001 by Bart Miltenberger (trumpet, flugelhorn), Matt Davis (acoustic guitar), and Michael Taylor (upright bass), The Chance Trio has performed their adventurous, passionate and humorous original compositions all over the Philadelphia area including energizing showcases at the 3rd and 4th Collective Voices Festivals and a long-standing residency at The Highwire Gallery. Influenced by Jazz, Blues, Folk, Rock, and the Avant-garde, every Chance Trio performance promises a quiet intensity straight from the heart.
The Chance Trio’s debut album, Marnee Birds, is available in stores and online at www.thechancetrio.com, www.cdbaby.com, and www.amazon.com.
About the Musicians:
UK-born trumpet player, Bart Miltenberger, whose playing has been called “impressive” by JazzTimes magazine, is a lyrical and melodic player with a warm and beautiful trumpet sound. He was recently invited by world-renowned trumpet star and composer Dave Douglas to perform in Trumpet Nation, the opening night of NYC’s 2nd annual Festival of New Trumpet Music. Miltenberger played alongside such trumpet greats as Douglas, Roy Campbell, Steve Bernstein, Graham Haynes, Ron Horton, John McNeil and more, all under the baton of the legendary conductionist Butch Morris. Miltenberger studied with the Maestro Dennis Sandole (best known as John Coltrane’s teacher) and was an American Composers Forum grant winner in 2003. He has performed and/or recorded with a variety of musicians and bands including Fathead, G-Love and Special Sauce, Conjunto 23, The Digable Planets, Jon Faddis, James Moody, Dave Liebman, Tyrone Brown, Farid Barron, and Tom Lawton. In addition to The Chance Trio, Miltenberger regularly performs with Bobby Zankel and the Warriors of the Wonderful Sound and Matt Davis’ Aerial Photograph.
Philadelphia-based guitarist and composer Matt Davis is hands-down one of the most exciting and respected young musicians on the Philly jazz scene. An impressive melodic player with a highly developed harmonic palette, Davis also studied with Maestro Sandole and is a graduate of the Esther Boyer College of Music at Temple University. He has performed with jazz luminaries such as Odean Pope, Billy Harper, Dave Liebman, Tyrone Brown, Terell Stafford, Bobby Zankel, and Byard Lancaster. An active and sought-after freelancer, Matt also performs regularly with his own original group, Matt Davis’ Aerial Photograph.
Bassist and composer Michael Taylor has long been a creative force in the Philadelphia music scene. The Philadelphia Weekly describes his passionate, lyrical approach to the bass as having a “smooth toughness.” Taylor’s sensitivity and his ability to set the appropriate mood have made him a respected musician. He has studied with Mark Helias in addition to studying at the Esther Boyer College of Music at Temple University. He has performed with The Taylor/Madof Group, Minas, Farid Barron, Tom Lawton, Sid Simmons, and Duane Eubanks. In addition to The Chance Trio, Taylor regularly performs with Matt Davis’Aerial Photograph, and Trio HC.
