The Israeli singer and composer Efrat Alony has been fascinating the European audience and press ever since her arrival in Berlin. Expressive and urgent in her compositions, vulnerable - almost thin-skinned in her prose, and unmistakably unique in her agile, warm sound and style of singing. On the constant search for new paths- Efrat was crowned "one of the most important voices in the german jazz scene" (Ulf Drechsel, Kulturadio, Berlin Brandenburg) and her band Alony to “ one of the most outstanding ensemble of the current international singer-songwriter scene” ( Norbert Krampf, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung) With Oliver Leicht on clarinets and electronics and Frank Wingold on guitars, Alony takes on a new “sound-adventure”: with a framework-that is without boundaries - open for excursions to rock and electronics. Their popular art-songs and imaginary folksongs paint a fascinating mosaic, reflecting on a wide range of emotions, creating a "cinema for the ear", diving into the endless depth of improvisation. Guided with the curiosity for the unorthodox and the unknown, as well as a great subtlety and finesse, with the serenity - to question - and the repose - to try and answer, this trio bewitches the listener. Alony's music was best portrayed by Doug Ramsey (Artsjournal): "I'm not sure that there is a category for what Alony does. I'm not sure that there should be. Call it music.“
