Montreal, Canada (Top40 Charts) Montreal pianist, composer, improviser and arranger Marianne Trudel will release her new recording with Trifolia titled 'Le Refuge' on July 2, 2013. Trifolia is the result of a rich collaboration between three accomplished musicians: Marianne Trudel (piano, accordion, wurlitzer, voice, composition), Étienne Lafrance (double-bass, composition) and Patrick Graham (percussion) - each with a different palette of colors from which to sketch: Jazz meets world music, meets classical… and the Montreal trio blurs and then obliterates the boundaries while never straying from the heartfelt. « Foisonnant, articulé, généreux, up-lifting. Prodigieux! »Richard Desjardins, (Quebec).

Pierre Marchand and was produced by Marianne Trudel. "Le Refuge is distributed by Select Distribution.
