''Trios'' is an album by American composer and pianist Carla Bley with Andy Sheppard and Steve Swallow released on the ECM label.〔(ECM Catalogue ) accessed December 12, 2013〕 ==Reception== The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars and stated "''Trios'' offers more than just re-arrangements of some of Bley's classic tunes with a smaller group; it portrays how timeless she is as an artist, and just how integral is her role in the development of modern creative jazz".〔Jurek, T. (Allmusic Review ) accessed December 12, 2013〕 Writing in The Guardian, John Fordham observed "As the almost 20-year-old partnership between composer/pianist Carla Bley, bass guitarist Steve Swallow and British saxist Andy Sheppard has evolved, Bley the reluctant pianist has grown more assured, and the tonally subtle Sheppard more minimal, while Swallow holds the music in shape with his flawlessly purring lines".〔Fordham, J. (The Guardian Review ), September 13, 2013〕 The All About Jazz review by John Kelman said that "Without muss or fuss, Bley, Swallow and Sheppard have, with ''Trios'', created that most perfect of chamber records, filled with shrewd surprises and a delicate dramaturgy that reveals itself further with each and every listen"〔Kelman, J. (''Trios'' Review ) ''All About Jazz'', September 13, 2013〕 Another review by Sammy Stein stated "Some of the tunes are familiar as Bley has recorded them before, but here they are given a new life, energy and subtle changes of interpretation. The communication between players and intensity of the musicians is clear. Simply put, this is great music, well played".〔Stein, S. (''Trios'' Review ) ''All About Jazz'', September 19, 2013〕 The ''JazzTimes'' review by Thomas Conrad said "Carla Bley’s reputation as an important composer and arranger is based on her work with larger ensembles. Trios is a glimpse into her aesthetic world stripped to its barest essentials... No layers are possible, only open-ended implications and the stark designs created by three very different instrumental voices juxtaposed in space".〔Conrad T.
