David Buchbinder: Odessa / Havana
by David Miller

David Buchbinder: Odessa/Havana
by Elliott Simon
Significant Jewish participation in the Latin dance craze of the 1950s resulted in several novelty fusion records that Latinized traditional Jewish melodies within a jazz context. By presenting the melody against a Latin rhythm, “Hava Nagilah" was thusly transformed into a cha-cha.

David Buchbinder: Shurum Burum Jazz Circus
by Ken Kase
David Buchbinder occupies a curious place among modern-day jazz composers. A fine trumpeter with firm roots in jazz, he has used the idiom to explore an eclectic mix of musical styles. The circus tradition, with its emphasis on borrowing from many world cultures, is a natural forum for such experimentation. The selections on Shurum Burum Jazz ...
