"I really love the piano trio," says Aki Takase, with a passion that mirrors her playing. "But not the old idea, where the pianist is king, and the bassist and the drummer are just sidemen. We are equal."
«Ich liebe das Klaviertrio», sagt die Pianistin Takase mit derselben Präzision, die ihr Spiel prägt. «Aber nicht die alte Idee, bei der die Pianistin die Königin ist und Bassist und Schlagzeuger nur Nebenfiguren.» |
