Active since:
The original and unique "In Between" project by the "Chameleon Trio" brings the listener to surprising and unexpected places. The program is very diverse; it`s filled with humor, anger, sadness, laughter, depression, melancholy and then laughter again. The music was composed by Dvir Katz and is inspired by a variety of styles, from the modern classical music through the avant-garde jazz and rock. Alongside with the strictly written compositions, an integral part of the music is free improvisation; this way each one of the musicians contributes his/her own individual and unique perception to the piece. The composition and the improvisation are inspired from a wide scale of styles from the early 20th century composers to contemporary music figures, among those- Edgar Varez, Thelonious Monk, Béla Bartók, Ornette Coleman, Louis Sclavis, Sergey Prokofiev, "King Crimson", Gyorgy Ligeti, Eric Dolphy, Paco de Lucia, Frank Zappa, Vyacheslav Ganelin and many other composers and musicians. The composer`s (Dvir Katz`s) individual nature combined with those varied influences led to the unique style of writing; and together with the wonderful interpretation and improvisation of the musicians gave birth to the special sound of "Chameleon Trio".

Asher Kesher- "Kol Hazman" (Jerusalem) "...This long night concluded with one of the first performances by the new Chameleon Trio•Dvir Katz (flute) and Nitai Levi (clarinets), both swirled around the assured playing of Ora Boasson-Horev (bass)
