The music of the Treetop trio could be described as contemporary chamber jazz. The group consists of the accordionist Vojta Drnek, trombonist Richard Šanda and the bassist Michal Šelep. This unique formation did not form because of the need to come forward with a forced shocking and fresh concept; rather because of three people who understand each other both musically and emotionally and feel united by common work. The repertoire is diverse; it absorbs jazz influences, folklore music, classical music and compositional elements of contemporary music. All of the three musicians participate in projects on a wide spectrum of genres and strive to enrichen the music with whatever they consider interesting about contemporary music, exploring the sonic possibilities of this instrumental structure.
