International Jewish Music Festival
“Listening to Ezekiel’s Wheels is like listening to a good Jewish joke: even when you already know it, you enjoy hearing it again, provided that it’s told well. The jury commends the group for their feeling of the klezmer tradition. More than in many other groups, their playing struck the jury as a celebration of true musical democracy. For the audience it’s a joy to watch (and hear) how the group’s members really listen to each other, making room for each other and reacting to fine nuances and shifts in the playing of the other band members. The jury was particularly impressed by their rendition of La Rosa Enflorece: a beautifully structured and tasteful feat of creativity, with a special word of praise for their double bass player.”
