O’s Notes: Israeli pianist and composer Ari Erev assembles a fine group of musicians, friends and counsel for Close To Home. Assaf Hakimi (b), Gasper Bertoncelj (d), Gilad Dobrecky (perc), and Yuval Cohen (s-sax) form the core band with Erev. Hadar Noiberg adds flute on two selections notably the opener, “Israeli Story” with a fresh bounce from the rhythm section. There are also reflective ballads like “Childhood Scenes” and the lazy “Saturday’s Coffee”. The program alternates between these two themes for an appeasing session.
