Avishai Cohen - Aurora (making-of)

[mindbodymerge]

Wow! I love this! It makes me very excited about music

[razgolan17]

Itamar is amazing percussion player and Mark, well... he's god!!!!

imagine them (Mark Guiliana & IItamar Doari) plying together...

yes, Aurora is different than the previous albums of Avishai but this is refreshing. but I want to see the old trio back on stage soon!!!

Saw this last night in Toronto...the Aurora band. Incredible emotional artistry...know no borders.

[giladbarkan]

nice piano player. for a great jazz version of "Sheharhoret" (called "Morenika" on Avishai's recording), listen to Issi Rozen's recording, Dark Beauty

[TrumMarc]

saw him on the Stockholm Jazz Festival this year, and it was amazing! So living and soulfull.

And the percussionist is just mindblowing!!

[NostalgicProcrast]

I like this. I like his voice and the addition of brass and such, but I hope he goes back to the trio-thing. I like that concept more. To see what just drums, piano and bass can create. I miss Mark.

@NostalgicProcrast My reaction when I heard this album for the first time was exactly the same as yours. But then I listened to it again, and I've seen them live 2 days ago, and now I think it's a good thing that he's experimenting new stuff. His new band is oustanding live! But even though his new percussionnist is incredibly good, being a drummer myself and a complete fan of Mark, I must admit that I miss him... a LOT

[jmkostic]

Does anyone have an english translation?

thanx..... :)

[pedropogodno]

Congratulations for such a warm genius album! Its a must listens/know album.

[kaymacho]

Wel, I love this cd. It is certainly different but, have life and atmosphere of its own. He is great bass player, and as a vocalist... he is ok, but the vocal is only a part of a bigger picture. This is for me a big opportunity to get in touch with jewish songs and culture. I wish I could understand the words!

[Virons2]

I miss the Colors record vibe :< in my opinion its his best record and short after it Continuo is a great trio album , I don't get all the singing stuff its nice but come on ! Avishai Cohen is a great composer more then he is a singer!

[BushidoSax]

Jazz is about innovation. If it always stays the same then why do it? This sounds like it's an amazing album. Cohen is my favorite acoustic bassist and I look forward to it.

everyone says "bring mark back" but you dont know the original music this is not normal jazz... and itamar is doing great job he knows exectly what avishai wants

[TheNeighboursSon]

As a Jewish-Israeli listner I dissagree with the below mantioned critisizm. I find this album exciting! it has a different ambiance, nostalgic, earthly, Avishai takes his beautifuly designed fusion between arab traditional desert music, jazz and jewish-sepharadi traditional vibe - to a whole new place - each time deeper and deeper into that blend of magic tunes. Defenately a brilliant album, I am hooked.

[ezbit14]

bring the drummer back !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tis2nwod]

I think it's a big mistake to not have Gulliana or Barsh on this album. I've followed Avishai's music since I started to find a love of jazz music, I saw them get better and better up to Continuo. Now it's all downhill. This ISN'T bad, but it's not got the same buzz about it. Contrary to what is said in this video I think Maestro is a very cold player emotionally even though his technique is very fluid.

[ker331]

i like that he has some stuff in ladino..

he is cool! yea

[Cannonbo]

ah i was wondering what language sounds like spanish but i can hardly understand any of it... :-)

thx wikipedia

[Virons2]

Actually most of the stuff he sings is in Hebrew , he has a track in this album "Morenika" Which is in spanish\Ladino but the rest is hebrew m8

[lippollitto]

Beautiful video. Morenika is a blast!

[ezbit14]

i cant understand why mark isnt in the cd ??!!

HUGE MISTAKE !!!

without mark is 50 % LESS GOOD !!

with all the respect 4 itamar , he is the man !

Bring the drummer back avishai !!!!

avishai go back to your continuo , gently disturbed vibe !!

this is the real stuff !!!!!

peace

[smoukondeuoter]

[jabf123]
