Parlour . . MORE ON AMOS HOFFMAN AMOS HOFFMAN (pronounced AH-mus) is
an Israeli Jazz Guitarist & Oudist known worldwide as a pioneer in
fusing the rhythms and melodic themes of the Middle East with Modern
Jazz. Hoffman started playing guitar at the age of 6, and the oud a
few years later. He studied guitar privately, and later attended the
prestigious Rubin Academy of Music in Jerusalem. His search for new
musical experiences led him first to Amsterdam, and then to New York
City, where he played jazz with both established musicians and
up-and-coming talents like Jason Lindler, bassist Avishai Cohen, and
Claudia Acuna. To date, Hoffman has recorded 5 solo albums: The
Dreamer (1999), Na’ama (2006), Evolution (2008), Carving (2010), and
his most recent release, Back to the City (2015). He has also
contributed on dozens more for artists in Israel and worldwide
including Avishai Cohen, Kiko Berenguer (Spain), and Jan Mlynarski
(Poland). In 2013, Amos was awarded one of Israel’s most prestigious
prizes – The Landau Prize for Arts and Sciences for Outstanding
Achievement in the field of Jazz. Now based in the U.S., Hoffman looks
forward to creating new musical adventures and reaching an even larger
audience. . .
