"The music of this trio, with its emphasis on phrasing, space and dialog, evokes for me the sensation of watching vapor rise and dissolve. That’s why I named the group and the album Atmos, after the Greek word for vapor. The trio has been active since 2023, especially before Brittany Karlson moved from Boston to NY, but there have been other contexts in which the three of us collaborated in different formations. There are six improvised pieces here, five originals of mine (three written specifically for this recording session), and Brittany contributes a beautiful original composition of her own." - Pandelis Karayorgis
"Between the three of us, there is a bond of language but also an openness to explore beyond it. The music here feels conversational, with our cadences, breath, and pauses, all accounted for." - Noah Campbell
