Or Bareket

Born in Jerusalem and raised in Buenos-Aires and Tel-Aviv, Or Bareket is one of the most in-demand and versatile bassists on the NYC jazz scene. In this intimate show in Bing Studio, he performs duets with pianist Nitai Hershkovits, and also with special guest guitarist Camila Meza. His diverse heritage is clearly present in his playing: His approach to improvisation is informed by Mediterranean, South American, and North African folk music, interpreted through his deep knowledge and appreciation of the American jazz tradition.
