About Me

Chameleon Trio's album In Between is available at

CDBABY .. -- -- and JAZZIS WEB SHOP

"...Debut album by one of the most interesting ensembles active on the burgeoning Israeli scene. Completely original, the trio combines contemporary classical chamber music and jazz into a beautiful amalgam, which should leave no sensitive listener cold...These young and talented players combine their forces to create some of the most advanced and adventurous music ever played in the Holy Land..."

Adam Baruch- Jazzis

"…How much the Third Stream composers are insane? This is a question that would be asked in a wider historical perspective, but there are few answers we already get, while listening to the first and the excellent album of the Chameleon Trio- "In Between"…"

Asher Kesher- "Kol Hazman" newspaper

"…In Between leans more towards the new music pole, but offers many adventurous and enjoyable improvised passages. Katz is a very talented storyteller who knows how to assemble drama, humor, sorrow, joy and optimism into thoughtful compositions. His work is well structured, but offers plenty of personal space to all three musicians…"

Eyal Hareuveny, "All About Jazz"

"…This album is neither an alibi nor a report. It's an art of music presented to the listener by Chameleon Trio… Fiery enthusiasm with original ideas and fresh interpretations make the music live and breathtaking…"Why?" seems to be the most popular question according to Rudyard Kipling. Here various music genres from classical music and blues to modern merging of jazz and classical music and free improvisation are presented. This question, musically proposed by Katz, Boasson-Horev and Levi, can be embodied by the listener according to his own confluence with the music… "
