I just met Gilad a few weeks ago and saw him playing for the first time at Wakefield Jazz Club last week -- he's doing this really interesting thing with a string quartet and some of the Bird with Strings arrangements. This was seriously one of the best, most musical sets I have heard in ages. Not just a reproduction of the arrangements, he does some interesting things with them including some free and often middle-eastern sounding playing with it. You MUST see this if he's playing in your area, it'll be the most interesting jazz gig you see this year.
Disclaimer/thinly veilled brag -- Gilad is playing on my mouthpieces now. I don't want you to think I'm just plugging my guy (or myself, FTM), I really am a huge fan.
Anybody else heard/seen Gilad Atzmon lately?
