Artist Biography
Available in:

Over the last two decades Avishai Cohen has earned his reputation as one of the world’s greatest bassists. It is however as a composer that his musical statement has grown. Now with his new trio he brings fresh compositions and arrangements to the stage; presenting music from his latest album ‘From Darkness’ (February 2015), as well as many audience favourites from his past recordings and live shows.

Accompanying him are two young talents from Israel. Nitai Hershkovits, the golden fingered pianist, has been filling the music of Avishai with grace since the (duet) album Duende (2012), a recording that has already highlighted his maestro in the acrobatic and demanding art.

Adding to the surprises on stage is the very talented Daniel Dor who has recently been quoted as being ‘in a league of his own’, and ‘unstoppable.’ Daniel entered Avishai’s musical world in late 2013 and quickly managed to breathe new life into it.

“Both Nitai and Daniel take my music to places and perspectives that I had never suspected it would go and I couldn’t dream of anything better… Here three becomes one.”

The energy Avishai has put into bringing the upright bass into the spotlight whilst pushing the boundaries of jazz has paid off and earned him international awards and recognition.

The stage is undoubtedly a place where he feels at home, so much so that attending one of his live performances is probably the best way to get acquainted with his music universal.
