Ricardo Grilli Trio
Mezzrow161 West 10th Street, New York 10014
Ricardo Grilli Trio is billed at Mezzrow in Manhattan on December 10. The available event information names the group as a trio but does not list the individual musicians or describe a particular project, guest appearance, tribute, release, or late set. The performance takes place in Mezzrow’s compact basement room, where close seating puts listeners near the players and their onstage exchanges. The venue presents jazz in a setting designed for focused listening, with a bar but no full kitchen, so the music remains the evening’s focus.
The material provided identifies the act by its billed name, Ricardo Grilli Trio, but supplies no biography, home base, musical history, recordings, collaborators, or critical notices for the group. It also does not identify the trio’s personnel, so there is no basis here for assigning instruments or naming sidemen. Mezzrow is part of a foundation supporting jazz artists and is a regular Manhattan room for small-group performances; after scheduled sets, the venue may continue with vinyl or jam sessions. Those are features of the room, however, rather than details specifically announced for this Ricardo Grilli Trio date.
