Hadar Noiberg Trio (Israel)

Flutist, composer and arranger Hadar Noiberg has established herself as a major force in the Cuban, Jazz and World music scenes. With a language that transcends her Middle Eastern roots, she fuses styles seamlessly, distinguishing her as both innovative and highly skilled.

She explains: “The flute in Western improvised music has always been an instrument that was either used by doublers or was not considered a serious main instrument. In the Eastern and Middle Eastern musical traditions the flute, the Middle Easternney or the Indian bansuri are primal and influential instruments that hold the deep soul of the music. I want to bring that depth and richness into my music, which is influenced by both West and East, and feature the flute as a strong leading instrument.”

Hadar’s original material is being performed by her trio which has a daring and unique instrumentation: flute, double bass (Edward Perez) and drums/percussion (Ziv Ravitz) which allows sliding in and out of Jazz improvisation and Western harmonies with Middle Eastern and North African rhythms and semitones.

Band:
Hadar Noiberg – flute
Edward Perez – bass
Ziv Ravitz – drums, percussion

Within the framework of the AglanJazz 2012 Festival
