The sound of trumpeter Avishai Cohen is instantly recognizable. Yet he keeps looking for new ways to express himself and to compose. He is a master at bringing different worlds together harmoniously. This is why he has been compared to the greatest jazz musicians in history by the American press: ‘Like Miles Davis, he can make the trumpet a vehicle for uttering the most poignant human cries’, wrote JazzTimes. A new album by the Avishai Cohen Quartet will be released this year on the quality label ECM Records. It’s the follow-up to Naked Truth (2022), which was recorded with the same line-up. The band’s symbiosis is truly beautiful, leaving no doubt that we are in the presence of four jazz heroes at the top of their game.
