A fascinating encounter between two musical worlds - classical music and jazz. In the spirit of the Third Stream that developed in the second half of the 20th century, a unique dialogue is created between the structures and harmonies of the classical tradition and the freedom, groove and improvisation of jazz. The quartet - Steve Wilson, Alon Nechushtan on piano, Yorai Oron on bass and Dani Benedikt on drums - presents a rich program combining pieces that have become milestones in the encounter between the styles. Among the pieces in the program: "Take Five" by Dave Brubeck and Paul Desmond, "A Salute to Bach" by Oscar Peterson, "A Salute to Chopin" by Dave Brubeck, and "Blues Baroque" by John Lewis and the Modern Jazz Quartet. The influence of the Third Stream extended beyond the world of jazz and also influenced jazz-rock artists. For example, Keith Emerson, who was influenced by the music of Aaron Copland, created dramatic connections between classical music and progressive rock. The show will also feature the piece "Jerusalem" by Emerson, Lake & Palmer. An evening of a rich musical mosaic in which the boundaries of style blur - a new and exciting meeting between classical, jazz and improvisation! Steve Wilson is one of the most prominent alto and soprano saxophonists of his generation, described by Jazz Times as "one of the best of our time" and as a perfect composer-performer. He has taken part in over 175 recordings with jazz greats, including Chick Corea, Christian McBride, Dave Holland and Michael Brecker; a member of award-winning ensembles including the Dave Holland Quintet and Chick Corea's Grammy-winning ensemble "Origin". Featuring: Steve Wilson - saxophone, Alon Nechushtan - piano and artistic direction, Yorai Oron - bass, Dani Benedikt - drums.
