Exceptional guitarist with guartet doing main-stream jazz. Woody and Carol Stone saw Roni at the Jazz Improv Conference in NYC last year and knew he was a must for the festival. He is a very charming, talented guitarist and composer offering creative melodies, brilliant solos and dazzling original compositions. As a leader he has won high praise from jazz critics from around the world. Gary Giddins describes Ben-Hur "as eloquent as a cool breeze, this understated exercise in bebop equilibrium goes down so easy you might underestimate the magic. A limber and inventive guitarist...keeps the modernist flame alive and pure with a low flame burning in every note." |
