Goldings/Bernstein/Stewart Wednesday, September 25, at 8:00 p.m. The New York Times described Goldings/Bernstein/Stewart simply as "the best organ trio of the last decade." The Financial Times wrote that the trio members“clearly relish the chance to deliver the no-nonsense grooves and subtle interplay, crisp beats and flowing solos that the organ trio form demands. The band played with the intensity and creative spark to enthrall as well as excite. Goldings and Bernstein have a seemingly telepathic sense of each other’s sounds and textures, while Stewart’s steady pulse comes with a sharp supportive chatter. As a unit, they balance a warm heart with percussive bite, and sound terrific.â€?
