Ize Trio
Active since:
The story of Ize Trio begins in Boston at the Berklee Global Jazz Institute. This special program and community founded by Danilo Pérez brings students and mentors together from all over the globe to collaborate, innovate, and create global diplomacy through music. The three of us met through this community as students (and now professors) and became good friends. Our mentors Danilo Pérez, John Patitucci, Joe Lovano, Adam Cruz, and many more, opened the doors for us to explore music multiculturalism and social activism. Inspired, we officially began the Ize Trio in 2019, seeking to bring our musical backgrounds from the US, Cyprus, and Palestine to the table and connecting through concepts of improvisation and Global Jazz.
