Originally from Kfar Saba, Israel, bassist and composer Daniel Oris first exposure to music was attending piano recitals at his grandmothers apartment in Tel-Aviv. At 14, he started playing the electric bass, which led him to Rimon School of Music, where he studied jazz performance for three years. Ori has since been active in the Israeli music scene, both as a writer and performer. Currently, he resides in Boston, where he is finishing his degree as a scholarship student at Berklee, majoring in contemporary writing and production.
Jazz Revelation Records presents the 3rd Annual Kendall Square Concert Series, and is collaborating for the first time with the Institute of Contemporary Art to present Harborwalk Sounds: Berklee at the ICA. Both series offer FREE live music on Thursdays throughout the summer (complete schedule of dates and times below). Artists include Berklee student and alumni jazz, world, Latin, and r&b musicians, some of whom are featured on the new Jazz Revelation Records CD The New Old School, including Jake Hertzog, MUNDuO, Mateo Lugo, Zili Misik, Daniel Ori, Alex Terrier, and Juan Ospina.
Jazz Revelation Records (JRR), Berklee's student-run jazz record label, was formed in the spring of 2003. The label is made possible by a grant funded by the college. Under previous management, Jazz Revelation Records successfully released the compilation CDs Rebirth, Two, and Ars Nova. Under the direction of current president Michael Borgida, the label has just released its fourth album, The New Old School. For the new CD, JRR gathered eight young, passionate, and committed artists from around the world, all speaking the traditional language of jazz in a new way.
The Kendall Square Concert Series take place at 300 Athenaeum St., Kendall Square, Cambridge, every Thursday, noon to 2:00 p.m., June 7 September 13. The Kendall Square Concert Series is sponsored by BioMed Realty Trust, Watermark Residences, and ConstellationCenter. For more information, please call (617) 577-7354.
