Yoni Kretzmer's New Dilemma: Yoni Kretzmer's New Dilemma

Read "Yoni Kretzmer's New Dilemma" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


Unlike many young jazz players in Israel, tenor saxophonist Kretzmer chose to broaden his musical education in France, instead of the United States. This appears to have exposed him to a much more varied scene, and a more open and flexible definition of jazz genres. His musical world is rooted in the fusion-meets-progressive rock ...

The New Albert Beger Quartet: Big Mother

Read "Big Mother" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


The cover of Israeli saxophonist Albert Beger's Big Mother captures your attention immediately.

Hamid Drake / Albert Beger / William Parker: Evolving Silence, Vol. 1

Read "Evolving Silence, Vol. 1" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Israeli tenor saxophonist Albert Beger uses a no-nonsense blood-and-guts attack during most of this turbocharged, free-form modern jazz exposition. Beger goes toe-to-toe with two famed jazz artists, bassist William Parker and drummer Hamid Drake, whose fluid, driving rhythms set the stage for this action-packed session. On “Naked Truth, Drake's sweeping press rolls behind Parker's briskly flowing ...
