 REVIEWS 
 OF OMER AVITAL:\n
 \n
 Omer Avital plays ". . . 
 a deep organic fusion of Middle Eastern and 
 North African music with current cutting-edge 
 jazz . . . incantatory melodies and throbbing 
 rhythmic patterns that are foreign until you 
 feel their universal human celebration . . 
 ."  - JazzTimes Magazine\n
 \n
 "Over the last few 
 years he has become a leading force in a hybrid 
 that synthesizes  American jazz, Israeli, 
 Yemeni, Moroccan, and other Arab styles into 
 something genuinely new and vital for its connection 
 to a shared Middle Eastern past." ~ 
 Ben Waltzer, Tablet Magazine\n
