I Treni Inerti

I Treni Inerti is the trio of Matt Davis and Ruth Barberán on trumpets and Alfredo Costa Monteiro on accordion, active in Barcelona's experimental improvisation scene.

Creative Sources released Ura (CS006), recorded in Barcelona in 2002, and Aérea (CS050), featuring Ruth Barberán and Alfredo Costa Monteiro. The two recordings document the project's interest in instrumental sound beyond conventional notes.

The musicians use breath, keys, bellows, silence and physical sound-producing gestures to investigate the limits of acoustic instruments.
