Alba Trio

Live at the Bop Stop

All music used with permission by Alba Trio.

Northeast Ohio based Alba Trio was founded as a way of exploring the potential of trumpet driven chordless trios.

Anthony Taddeo is perhaps heard more often as the driving force behind Alla Boara and he serves this group from behind the drum kit. Tommy Lehman works with and leads a number of groups as one of Cleveland and Akron’s busiest trumpet players. And amidst a long career spent -among other things in revitalizing the now flourishing Cape May, New Jersey jazz scene – Tim Lekan returns to anchor this trio on bass.

This performance celebrated the release of their self-titled 2022 album with a performance in the round – reconfiguring the performance space to get a different and interesting sound for this celebration.

From May 15th – 2022 it’s Alba Trio – Live at the Bop Stop.

Live at the Bop Stop is made possible by The Music Settlement – serving Northeast Ohio by offering music instruction, music therapy, and early childhood education since 1912. The Music Settlement's mission is to welcome all to our music and arts community to learn, create, inspire, and heal.

This program is recorded at the Robert Conrad Studios at the Bop Stop in Cleveland, Ohio, and the studios of WBWC FM on the campus of Baldwin-Wallace University in Berea, Ohio. Additional production at the Bop Stop is provided by Graham Rosen. Technical editing for the program is provided by Dr. Pete Naegele, Shawn Gilbert, and Darren Thompson through Gilazar Media.
