Avishai Cohen à l'Olympia - Seven seas 4K HDR

Filmed on the 21st November 2024
at the legendary Olympia Hall - Paris, France

Avishai Cohen Trio
Avishai Cohen — Double bassist, singer
Guy Moskovich — Pianist
Roni Kaspi — Drummer

One of the most prominent singer / songwriter / composers in the 21st-century jazz world, double bassist Avishai Cohen brings his bold, powerful rhythms and enchanting melodies to the stage of Paris's iconic Olympia Hall! Born in Israel, Cohen spent his teenage years in St. Louis, Missouri where, influenced by the art of Jaco Pistorius, he gave up his piano studies to spend more time honing his skill on the bass guitar. After studying the bass at the Music and Arts Academy in Jerusalem, he returned to America — this time in New York City — to make his name both as a solo artist and in successful collaborations with jazz legends like Danilo Pérez and Chick Corea. Now at the top of his field, he invites promising talents to perform with him and refine their gifts — like pianist Guy Moskovich and drummer Roni Kaspi, who join him here for another sold-out spectacle filled with sound and color, born from an irresistible mix of contemporary jazz and the music traditions that soundtracked Cohen's childhood.

Oooowee I have always wanted to groove just like that I’ll be 73 next month l hope it’s not too late please keep doing what you’re doing

Is... is that a giggle after that monstruous solo at 7:26? It is so beautiful to feel such a young energy mixed with such genuine reactions from Roni reminding us she's a 20's yo kid who runs the kit like few nowadays. After this rambunctious spectacular solo, Roni sits along with the very best drummers alive and who knows where will she sit when departing with the rest of us.
Thank you Avishai, for making this possible, loved the way you just vibed and danced to it. Nothing but gratitude 🙏

Fascinating version of the solo from Roni. Absolutely love it. Best drummer out there at the moment

[kevinfromdevon]

Every single live version of this song is different and every single version is incredible 🤌🙏

[laurentappercel]

Roni’s (almost) solo accompanied by the pianist Guy M. is just another world. A so much better experience than the same track on the original album

[NabilLachqar-hu]

Hommage a toutes les versions de seven seas Roni 😎

[rupert]

4:43 - Using two shares and creating a sweet echo effect. soo nice

[SomeDumUsrName-be]

What's hilarious is the added chaos of the audience trying to clap in time.

[ljubasreckovic]

My ones of best performance, melody and arrangement..❤️

[CurlyHoward]

I'm liking Roni Kaspi more than Jack DeJohnette now. Wow

[JeromeBertrand-ci]

Maybe the best version of Seven Seas I've heard. Cohen does it. Roni makes me cry. But I still love the one in Marciac France (2014) with legendary pianist (very percussionist!) and drummer Daniel Dor who's one of few who can make drums really sing the melody: the original! And Nitai is the drummer!
Avishai Cohen - bass
Nitai Hershkovits - piano
Daniel Dor - drums
