Release Notes:
With Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, Paul Bley, Elvis Costello, John
Coltrane and Egberto Gismonti among her many formative influences,
Anat FortÆs music can also subtly hint at her geographical
origins. Born near Tel Aviv, she studied classical piano as a
child and began improvising from an early age, all the while
remaining open to the many musical sounds of her environment.
In the early 1990Æs, Anat came to the United States to study jazz,
looking to balance a natural tendency towards freer playing with a
firm grounding in the tradition. Her sojourn resulted in her self
-produced debut album Peel, and commissions to write for various
ensembles including chamber and chorus and orchestra. Her most
recent commission was premiered at the Opera House in Tel Aviv in
January 2006.
Anat received two artist-in-residence grants from the Jerome
Foundation as well as the Creative Connections award from Meet the
Composer. A session recorded with drummer Paul Motian, bassist Ed
Schuller, and clarinetist Perry Robinson was brought to the
attention of the legendary producer Manfred Eicher ECM Records,
and the resultant CD was released in 2007 as A Long Story.
An important presence on the NYC alternative jazz scene and
equally highly regarded in her homeland, Anat currently splits her
time between Israel and the US and performs with bassist Gary Wang
and drummer Roland Schneider in her touring band, the Anat Fort
Trio.
