Itamar Erez Quartet at Winter Jazz Festival

With Mike Braverman reeds, James Meger bass, and Kevin Romain drums.

Itamar Erez Quartet "…expands the musical cultures and geographical borders of the Middle East with passionate flamenco and Latin music themes, the lyricism of Brazilian bluesy Choro and, obviously, the freedom of jazz." (Salt Peanuts Magazine)

Itamar Erez's music holds a depth and sensitivity that touches listeners deeply. During the last few years, he performed in Canada, USA, Germany, Netherlands, Austria, Cyprus, Israel, India, Tunisia, Hungary and Colombia. Itamar will be joined by his fantastic quartet, featuring some of the finest players on the Canadian jazz scene playing selections from his new CD 'Mi Alegria', as well as other original compositions.
