Bio
Yael Bat-Shimon, described by The Boston Globe as an “adventurous contemporary violinist” whose improvisational work “draws on her classical training as well as non-Western musical traditions”, has performed for audiences from Paris, France to Cambridge, MA. Her music was featured in the Fall 2008 edition of the arts and culture e-zine "Zingology", which called her improvisations “fiery interpretations of European and American folk traditions squarely anchored on her classical training.” In addition to her fascination with the interplay between Western and non-Western musical traditions, Yael is deeply influenced by the work of contemporary painters and dancers. She has worked extensively with choreographers in the collaborative creation of improvised works, often playing the dual role of musician and mover on stage. A Harvard graduate, she has also studied violin performance and contemporary improvisation at the Peabody Institute of Music in Baltimore and the New England Conservatory in Boston. Yael Bat-Shimon's first CD, “When Way Opens: Live Improvisations”, is due to be released in February of 2010. -
