Then he founded his trio with the bassist Reinier Elizarde and the drummer Michael Olivera , with which he released three albums since 2015, in which musicians such as Jorge Pardo , Alain Pérez and Ariel Brínguez were also involved. The album Travesuras (2019) received very good reviews; In addition to flamenco jazz , pieces by Federico Mompou are also interpreted there. He is also part of Antonio Lizana's sextet .
