About

Unity Trio: acoustic, traditional & contemporary jazz with Nathan Tran on Piano, Halloween 🎃 Unity trio consists of pianist Nathan Tran, bassist Sylvester Pedersen, and drummer Keith Barstow. The trio started to take shape in February of 2026. As a citizen of Denmark, Sylvester was an exchange student for the school year, studying music at the University of Toronto. In the city, he met Nathan and Keith, but the collaboration did not begin until the last few months of his stay. The trio is characterized by a need for group improvisation, equal collaboration, and greater creative possibility. Stylistically, they cover a wide range, so that the atmosphere can completely change from one song to another. Their repertoire consists of the most beautiful compositions from artists including Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, Richard Rogers, George Gerswhin, Thelonious Monk, Ornette Coleman, Bud Powell,
