My Life & Work

  • Bio: Ben Azar represents a new breed of ultra-versatile guitar players and musicians which derives their ideas, style and taste from a broad and diverse range of sources.

    A former New Yorker and now Israeli-based. Ben's career drifts from playing and touring as a side-man with established rock acts, such as guitar legend Marty Friedman (Megadeath, Cacophony) and Ron 'Bumblefoot' Thal (Guns n Roses), playing gospel (Hill Of The Lord Ministries in Brooklyn) to playing a verity of pop and ethnic/Middle-Eastern styles with local Israeli superstars, and of-course playing jazz concerts as a side man and as a leader with his group.

    Ben's unique approach to music can be heard on his debut album "Organized Memories" (2011) which was released on Greg Osby's label, INNER CIRCLE Music. With his jazz guitar-based trio, his music reflects diverse influences and features intricate and lyrical compositions with a modern approach to improvisation. Ben brings to his music influences from all over the musical spectrum. From Mediterranean music, reflecting his early childhood in Israel, Rock music which reflect his teens, and Jazz music which reflect his late teens and twenties. Due to his international career the album, has reached far places of the world, to different kinds of music lovers, and is played in a variety of US and Israeli radio stations. Engineer Michael Perez-Cisneros (worked with Kurt Rosenwinkel, Eli Degibri, Omer Avital) mixed and mastered the album. He captured the intense performances of drummer Ziv Ravitz (Lee Konitz, Omer Klein, Shai Maestro) and acoustic bassist Daniel Ori (ASCAP Jazz Composers Award Winner of 2009).

    In 2004 Ben received a scholarship to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston. He graduated with honours in 2007 with a double major in contemporary writing and production and performance. He studied under such luminaries as Mick Goodrick, Joe Lovano, Dave "Fuze" Fiuczynski, George Garzone, David Tronzo and more. While attending Berklee Ben has sharpen not only his instrumental skills, but also his writing and producing skills. Giving him a wider overview on his music and making it more accessible to the non musicians or academic crowd.

    Writing music for bands, WEBSITES and movies also give Ben his diverse and unique sound. Having said that, with all the vast influences, it is very important for Ben to keep his music organic and natural sounding, he treats it like a living, breathing being.

The world's artistry via giant steps through a matrix based in the phenomenon placing most of the 7.8 billion of us within 6 or fewer degrees — steps — of each other ...

 

... a project conceived and built in the fertile, fecund and atavistic ground zero of Bahia, Brazil initially for the discoverability of this singular region's dispossessed genius.

 

All explained in the window immediately below. Followed — beneath this window — by scores of magnificent artists, each leading to myriads more artists/categories. Inside this window also  may be found our Brazilian record store radio, named by British journal The Guardian as one of 10 of the Best Radio Stations Around the World!

 

IF YOU CAN'T STAND THE HEAT

 

Brazil is not a European nation. It's not a North American nation. It's not an East Asian nation. It straddles -- jungle and desert and dense urban centers -- both the equator and the Tropic of Capricorn. It absorbed over ten times the number of African slaves taken to the United States of America, and much of its aboriginal population was absorbed into the general population-at-large. Its people have lived under oligarchy, plutocracy, dictatorships and massive corruption, with elements of these still strongly entrenched today.

 

But!

 

Brazil has buzz...not the shallow buzz of a fashionable moment...but the deep buzz of a population which in spite of -- or perhaps because of -- the tough slog through life they've been allotted by humanity's dregs-in-fine-linen, have chosen not to simply pull themselves along but to lift their voices in song and their bodies in dance...to eat well and converse well and much and to wring the joy out of the day-to-day happenings and small pleasures of life which are so often set aside or ignored in the European, North American, and East Asian nations.

 

For this Brazil has a genius perhaps unparalleled in all other countries and societies, a genius which thrives alongside peeling paint and holes in the streets and roads, under bad organization by the powers-that-be, both civil and governmental, under a constant rain of societal indignities...

 

Which is all to say that if you don't know Brazil and you're expecting any semblance of order, progress and light, you will certainly find the light! And the buzz of a people who for generations have responded to privation at many different levels by somehow rising above it all.

 

Raimundo Sodré, in a conversation ranging through New Orleans and Harlem and the South Side of Chicago ... and Appalachia and Irish villages and Russian shtetls and the unofficial symbol of Brazil's Bahian-born national music (the pandeiro) almost certainly having arrived in Brazil in the hands of Sephardic Jews (including conversos) fleeing the Inquisition, once remarked: "Where there's misery, there's music!"

 

A pandeirista on the roof. And it's not just music. And it's not just Brazil.
