Family by 3 Cohens

Being able to create and share music together, as 3
siblings, is a unique situation. Or so people tell us. We
know no other way - it is as natural to us as breathing.
But with the years we have become more and more
grateful, realizing the wonderful gift we have received.
The idea of recording with the great Jon Hendricks
came to us after we met him in Brazil in 2010, where
Jon sat in with our band. The connection felt magical
and we all agreed that we must record together. We
didn't know it would be so soon. Thank you, Jon, for
your amazing spirit, joy, stories and swing!!
We want to thank the hard swinging Aaron, Matt and
Greg: it was a thrill to have you on board with us for this
one!
This album is dedicated to our parents, Bilha & David
Cohen - without their love and support none of this
would have been possible. Thanks to you music is our
passion and our life - the greatest gift one (or three)
could ever ask for!
In loving memory of our friend Amit Golan.

The 3 Cohens are that sort of uncommon collective, a trio of siblings – tenor saxophonist/clarinetist Anat Cohen, trumpeter Avishai Cohen and soprano saxophonist Yuval Cohen – whose sense of improvisational interplay is both uncannily fluent and wonderfully, infectiously warm.
