Description
Soprano saxophonist Yuval Cohen's debut for ECM is a thrilling offering that captures the brother of long-time ECM traveller Avishai Cohen charting innovative paths through eight originals in graceful interplay with his freshly formed quartet. Pianist Tom Oren, bassist Alon Near and Alon Benjamini on drums are longtime acquaintances of Yuval's who are not only outstanding instrumentalists in their own right, but share a deep, intuitive understanding for the leader's musical language and improvisational approach. "I'm very fortunate to be able to play with these young guys," says Yuval. "I've known them for a long time – they're three beautiful souls and talents with whom I had a great time shaping this music together." Throughout the album, the saxophonist demonstrates his own understanding of chamber jazz dynamics and explores a broad range of influences – from folk idioms to motif development borrowed from classical music – to lyrical and contemplative, but also energetic and uplifting results.
