Of Note: Balancing Emotion and Form in Israeli Compositions

Violinist Itamar Zorman navigated exotic Israeli scales and modes to release his newest album “Evocation,” which highlights distinctive works by German-born Israeli composer Paul Ben-Haim.

“There is a really delicate but wonderful balance between the emotional content and the technical form of the piece, and the analytical part of it,” Zorman explains about reflecting Ben-Haim’s multi-cultural influenced compositions.

Listen to the full interview between Zorman and Of Note’s Katy Henriksen with the streaming link above.
