The Piano Trio
Ofir Tal piano · Tal Feder double bass · Amit Lorber drums
Original, Israeli, standards: my own music, Israeli jazz in new arrangements, and standards arranged for the show.
The bands
Beyond events I play in three standing bands: a piano trio of original and Israeli music, a Hammond trio with groove, and a jazz quintet from the north where I'm on double bass. These days I play the Hammond beyond the trio too, with other bands. Each is a different door into the same thing — listening, and playing the moment.
Hammond Trio
Ofir Tal organ · Hagai Peretz guitar · Amit Lorber drums
Driving groove and live energy — jazz, blues and funk. The organ plays the bass too, so a trio that sounds like a quartet.
Nascimento · Jazz Quintet
Hovav Ben Saadia saxophone · Ron Klein guitar · Yariv Domani piano · Ofir Tal double bass · Eran Shoham drums
Five veteran musicians from the north and classic jazz — Wes Montgomery, Art Blakey, Chet Baker — with bossa nova, modern rhythms and originals.
