Uri Bracha

Uri Bracha is an ACUM award winner musician, performer, composer and guitarist, possessing a unique sound whose work expresses the multitude of cultures and traditions existing in Israel and the Middle East. Uri has been active in various jazz ensembles throughout the years and has released to date five albums of originally composed music.

The performance with the trio focuses on original music from Uri’s pen along with arrangements for Israeli songs that correspond with the guitar. Particularly prominent in his music is the connection of Brazilian rhythms, the modern classical world, Israeli melody, ethnic Mediterranean music and jazz.

“An album that fulfills the vision of multi-cultural music through the unique guitar sound and original writing of Uri Bracha. … A vibrant fan of colors creates a musical melting pot, which contains quite a bit of Brazil, flamenco, and a special mixture of Middle Eastern music… A fresh breaze blows from the music of Uri Bracha in the melody, the crisp improvisations, and the instrumental colors.” (Yossi Khersonsky)
