Trigon is a
Trigon was founded in 1992 by Anatol Ştefăneţ, "a leading figure in Moldovan jazz in the early twenty-first century",[2] as a trio of Ştefăneţ (viola), Sergiu Testemiţeanu (bass guitar) and Oleg Batalga (percussion). The band developed "a form of 'ethno-jazz' blending traditional tunes with modern improvisation".[2] Another description of its style is "heavy punk meets rock with folk thrown in".[3]
Trigon's first CD, The Moldovan Wedding in Jazz, described as "a milestone in so-called world music",[1] was released in 1993. Later CDs Opt-–i–mistic, Seven Steps and Autumn Visit featured the Bulgarian kaval flute.[1]
