SUPREME CHORD
Eleven tracks bring original compositions together with new interpretations of Israeli and Eastern European songs. Asymmetrical rhythms, Latin and Brazilian grooves, Middle Eastern influences and meditative passages meet across the album.
From the Afro-Cuban colours of “Callejón de la Habana,” featuring Chen Pepe Meir on congas, to “Hej Sokoły,” the trio moves between composition and improvisation with melody, groove and humour.
