The Art of Three (2001) is a live jazz album that captures a rare collaboration between three legendary masters: drummer Billy Cobham, pianist Kenny Barron, and bassist Ron Carter. Recorded in January 2001 during their European tour with performances in Odense, Denmark, and Oslo, Norway, the album serves as the first installment of Cobham's The Art of Jazz series. Album Overview

Wait—violin in a trio? Ponty (who famously played with Cobham in the Mahavishnu Orchestra) joins for three cuts, expanding the group to a quartet on those tracks. The chemistry between Cobham’s rolling cross-rhythms and Ponty’s singing, vibrato-rich lines is pure fusion nostalgia—but reframed with chamber-jazz clarity.
