“Avishai Cohen’s ‘Arvoles’ is a riveting blend of jazz, Eastern European folklore, and Middle Eastern melodies that captivates both new and seasoned listeners.”
Step into a rich and compelling musical world with "Arvoles," an album where the gifted jazz bassist Avishai Cohen unfolds an intricate panorama of aural landscapes. With a reputation for blending a variety of musical traditions into his work, Cohen masterfully integrates elements from Eastern European folklore, Western classical themes, and Middle Eastern musical influences to create a cohesive jazz narrative that is both layered and mesmerizing.
Joining Cohen on this expedition of sound are the highly skilled Elchin Shirinov on piano and Noam David on drums.

Beyond the musical compositions, what sets "Arvoles" apart is its broad appeal.

With this project, Cohen effectively dismantles musical and cultural boundaries, employing jazz as a global language capable of uniting an eclectic mix of listeners from varying backgrounds.
For those keen on embarking on a musical journey that moves beyond the conventional, "Arvoles" offers a deeply enriching auditory experience that bridges different cultures and speaks volumes through the power of music.
