Larry Goldings started piano lessons at the age of nine. It was not until about 1990 that he also turned to the Hammond B3. Goldings’ playing is characterized by an immense stylistic flexibility: he plays funk together with Maceo Parker, folk and pop music with colleagues such as James Taylor or Norah Jones, modern jazz with a blues foundation in combination with John Scofield and abstract jazz in a trio with Jack DeJohnette and John Scofield. In addition, he presented piano recordings of classical jazz standards reminiscent of James P. Johnson or Erroll Garner. The music of his own trio, in which Bill Stewart and Peter Bernstein often participate, also testifies to this versatility.

Since 1991 Hammond organist Larry Goldings, guitarist Peter Bernstein, and drummer Bill Stewart have constituted what Jazzstation calls an “…unusual camaraderie of world-class players… Three of the world’s best players in the current jazz scene…” take to the musical playground to perform eight diverse, close-knit pieces that are a joy for the senses. Labeled “the best organ trio of the last decade” by the New York Times, these three possess a special place within the rich history of organ trios; with their adventurous eclecticism, they progress beyond the bop-influenced soul jazz of the likes of Jimmy Smith, Brother Jack McDuff and Shirley Scott and into their own singular musical realm. Larry Goldings has collaborated with the “who’s who” of soul, pop and jazz, from Maceo Parker, Tracy Chapman, and James Taylor to Jim Hall, Herbie Hancock, John Scofield, and Charlie Haden, and is in demand as a composer for film and TV. Peter Bernstein has been called “the most universally respected and admired jazz guitarist of his generation”, and his work with such greats as Sonny Rollins, Jim Hall, Joshua Redman, and Brad Mehldau backs up the claim. Known for his melodicism and polyrhythmic complexity, Bill Stewart has played with Joe Lovano, Dave Holland, and, like Goldings, Maceo Parker, and has had a long-time collaboration with John Scofield. All three are recognized composers.

Maceo Parker’s former rhythm section is now the longest-lived organ trio in jazz history.
One of the great jazz organ trios in history, and certainly the longest-lived, is that of Larry Goldings, Peter Bernstein and Bill Stewart. The release of their new album, Perpetual Pendulum, marks their 30th anniversary – the first single, Duke Ellington’s beautiful “Reflections in D,” heightened anticipation for this highly anticipated new album from the group. Coverage and publicity in all the major jazz magazines – from DownBeat to JazzTimes and Jazziz to Jazz thing. A triumph!
