A trumpet expressing "vulnerability" and "raw beauty," ECM reports on Avishai Cohen's latest album, Naked Truth. A suite divided into eight parts plus a coda, "Departure," a poem by Zelda Schneurson Mishkovsky recited by Cohen himself. Experience very emotional music, naked, with a solo instrument that exudes lyricism everywhere and a rhythm section—Yonathan Avishai on piano, Barak Mori on double bass and Ziv Ravitz on drums—that follows the leader's speech in detail. The meditative, reflective and evocative album Naked Truth portrays the most radically sincere Avishai Cohen. Indispensable.
