Ronn Yedidia's PROPHETS

Active since: March 16, 1984

Composer/Pianist Ronn Yedidia created PROPHETS in the early 1980's while still a student at Juilliard. Its music is often referred to as an innovative melding of contemporary Jazz and Classical idioms. Scored for a quartet of flute, piano, electric bass and drums, PROPHETS music is ultra-virtuosic and tightly constructed - mostly composed and only partially improvised. It draws its harmonic and gestural influences from many of the Jazz and Fusion streams in existence, as well as from certain Modern Classical traditions.  

In 1984 PROPHETS was recognized by Sony BMG's senior executive producer Thomas Frost. Frost produced the group's first studio recordings, which attracted much interest from record labels and world-renowned musicians such as Julius Baker, Gil Evans, Hubert Laws and many others. PROPHETS' unique sound was frequently heard on radio stations around the world.
