Delavnica En svet – ena glasba
Obstaja veliko glasbenih estetik in slogov, vsi so del tistega, kar v španščini imenujemo »Musica de ida y Vuelta«, kar pomeni glasba, ki gre in se vrača, potuje po različnih delih sveta, skozi ljudi, ki potujejo v različnih časih, prečkajo kulture in meje.

Delavnica spodbuja sodelovanje dijakov, na vseh inštrumentih.

“Mr. Yavnai is a unique and brilliant artist, one of the few musicians in the world who can master many distinct musical styles.”

Yo-Yo Ma

“A complex trans-cultural stew.”

Ted Panken, DOWNBEAT

“Alon is blessed with an amazing harmonic sense, conveyedthrough subtle uses of inner voices and concepts that are interesting horizontally as well as vertically.”

The Monterey County Post

“The attention given to the compositions pays off, and the result is complete work, fulfilling and emotionally charged; this music seems to carry a multicultural spirit of some magic place.”

CD Review of ‘D.S. al Coda’ Laura D’Incá, All About Jazz

“Just when you think something might be floating in the familiar, Mr. Yavnai takes off in an unanticipated direction. This is jazz at its finest without sounding like every other jazz album.”
