Piano, vibraphone, and a meeting of Central European and New York jazz. On November 5, Daniel Bulatkin and Miro Herak brought their project Elysium to Czech Center New York, joined by bassist Ben Tiberio and drummer Ofri Nehemya.
Part of our Offbeat Bohemia concert series, the evening featured original music drawing on Slavic and Romani folk traditions, Balkan rhythms, and impressionist influences. The quartet paired lyrical melodies with spirited improvisation, exploring the distinctive interplay of piano and vibraphone.
