From The Jerusalem Post:

If packing your artistic trousseau with multicultural baggage is a professional prerequisite, then Marilyn Crispell is well equipped for her craft. The 63-year-old jazz improvisation pianist has traversed expansive personal, ethnic, spiritual and artistic domains in her over three decades on the jazz-oriented side of the musical tracks, with some earlier classical training as an extra stake in her formidable musical foundations. Next week (October 19 and 20) she will perform at Tel Aviv’s Levontin 7 club alongside long-time cohort drummer Gerry Hemingway in what promises to be an improvisational tour de force by two free-spirited artists at the top of their game.
