Erez Aviram
The Erez Aviram Ensemble is a unique group consisting of eight versatile musicians from New York City led by composer and pianist Erez Aviram. The ensemble, combining traditional orchestral instruments with a powerful rhythm and horn sections, creates a bridge between the written and the improvised, skipping flawlessly between genres and modes to produce intellectual and emotive music.
Since its inception, the ensemble has become a rising force in the chamber jazz scene, performing in New York City.
Following the recording and filming of their debut EP, the ensemble delivered a sold-out performance at the 2023 Rochester Jazz Festival, and were picked to perform at Chamber Music America's Showcase in Times Square, NYC on January 2024.
Erez Aviram, known for his work on “Elegy” and “Welcome to Addis”, has garnered Hollywood Music in Media Awards nominations in 2021 and 2022. His diverse portfolio includes music for the concert stage, film scores (“Exodus 91”, 2022, “The Mossad”, 2019) and the progressive rock band Anakdota (“Overloading”, 2016), which all received recognition in the press worldwide.
