  • Bio

    WHITE TIGER .. Yuri always had an eye for contemporary developments, especially in popular music. After the successful release of the 'Phase Five' album (Verve 270377-4) in collaboration with producer FLORiS featuring vocalists Janne Schra, Sarah Bettens and Lillian Vieira finally the long awaited album 'White Tiger is released... Since 2006 Honing and his electric band Wired Paradise are conquering the world with electronics, rock and jazz in a spectacular mix where Honing's saxophone seems to represent the vocal part in many songs... White Tiger is recorded during their 2009 world tour and proves the band to be a stunning live act... The album is inspired by Aravid Adiga's prizewinning novel 'The White Tiger'. As a blueprint of India's society Adiga's novel; overwhelmed Honing completely, who has been touring India for many years... Also, an important part of his album was recorded during Honing's last concert in India, at his 2009 Mumbai concert... Review from All about jazz .com ( the most visited website on jazz in the world) about Yuri Honing Wired Paradise 'White Tiger' ‘Honing’s tenor has something of the pure tone of Jan Gabarek and the lovely vocal quality of a balladeer’ ‘A gorgeous rendition of Bjork’s Isobel and David Bowie’s Space Oddity , follow the respective vocal melodies closely before Honing peels away, following his muse with muscular, searching solo’s which are all the more powerful, given the almost minimalist setting from which they emerge.’ ‘White Tiger is a beautiful, compelling recording’
