Tal Cohen Trio: Songs Inspired by My Childhood in Israel

Grammy Award-winning jazz pianist Tal Cohen, whose unique style infuses jazz with traditional Middle Eastern rhythms, has performed around the world with jazz greats such as Terence Blanchard, Greg Osby, Ignacio Berroa, and Joe Lovano.

A winner of the Barry Harris national piano competition at the Detroit Jazz Festival and the Freedom Jazz Fellowship in his native Australia, Tal's recent album, 'Gentle Giants' received rave reviews and 4 stars from DownBeat Magazine. His current collaboration - with 6-time Grammy Award-winner John Daversa - is a duo project that explores breaking boundaries of what a duo can achieve.
