Avishai Cohen Press Clippings
" What a pleasure to hear an emerging musician put out a record with the real spirit of what I consider jazz to be. That is the spontaneous, risk taking attitude which a listener should feel immediately and is a trademark of the masters of jazz. Real playing in real time." -DAVE LIEBMAN, SAXOPHONIST
" Avishai Cohen's album the Trumpet Player...is s thrown gauntlet... he's go some of the confident tone and rhythm of Clifford Brown under his fingers, and plays battling, hard-hitting figures and intervals." -BEN RATLIFF, SUNDAY NEW YORK TIMES10/03
melodic imagination and a powerful drive. He writes impressively, too... Cohen has done himself no favors by making such an outstanding album for his own name debut: he'll need to bust a gut to better it." -BARRY WITHERDEN, JAZZ REVIEW11/03
" Israeli-born trumpeter Avishai Cohen is now an emerging local horn hero and this is his great new strong debut disc." -DOWNTOWN MUSIC GALLERY11/03
" In his debut album, Cohen shows maturity and self-confidence... this album is courageous and impressive." -BEN SHALEV, HA' ARETZ11/03
