As its name suggests, “Living Organs” is an album bursting with life, a breathtakingly modern jazz session that seems to revel in the fact that what we call “tradition” can be made up of routes as diverse as they are itinerant, of paths as richly shaped as they are multiple. Hailed by JazzTimes for his “agility and clear, bright, powerful sound”, saxophonist and composer Shauli Einav is a multi-faceted musician whose art is rooted in a quest for truth. This philosophy has guided him throughout an audacious career, marked by collaborations with major jazz figures such as Aaron Goldberg, David Liebman, Gilad Hekselman, Avishai Cohen, Johnathan Blake, Shai Maestro and Tigran Hamasyan, among others. Born in rural Israel, Einav studied in New York before spending several years on the Paris jazz scene, before settling in Luxembourg. As All About Jazz points out, “Shauli Einav is a remarkably accomplished musician, a virtuoso soloist with a lush sound on both soprano and tenor, whose compositions are bold and profound.” These aspects, driven by his profound quest to express an ever-evolving personal truth, make Einav one of the most captivating and exploratory saxophonists in jazz today....

Comme le suggère son nom, "Living Organs" est un album qui regorge de vie, une session de jazz d’une modernité époustouflante qui semble se délecter du fait que ce que l’on nomme "tradition" peut être constitué de tracés aussi divers qu’itinérants, de sentiers aux formes aussi riches que multiples. Salué par JazzTimes pour son "agilité et son son clair, éclatant et puissant", le saxophoniste et compositeur Shauli Einav est un musicien aux multiples facettes dont l'art est ancré dans une quête de vérité. Cette philosophie l’a guidé tout au long d’une carrière audacieuse, marquée par des collaborations avec des figures majeures du jazz telles qu’Aaron Goldberg, David Liebman, Gilad Hekselman, Avishai Cohen, Johnathan Blake, Shai Maestro et Tigran Hamasyan, entre autres. Né dans la campagne israélienne, Einav a poursuivi ses études à New York avant de passer plusieurs années sur la scène jazz parisienne, puis de s’installer au Luxembourg. Comme le souligne All About Jazz, "Shauli Einav est un musicien remarquablement accompli, un soliste virtuose au son luxuriant tant au soprano qu’au ténor, dont les compositions sont audacieuses et profondes." Ces aspects, portés par sa quête profonde d’exprimer une vérité personnelle en constante évolution, font d’Einav l’un des saxophonistes les plus captivants et explorateurs du jazz actuel.
