Reut Regev - this is R*time (2009)

“...this is R*time is a 'stunning' and 'breathtakingly expansive and unabashedly modern record from an upcoming artist. A musical collaboration between Reut and her husband, drummer Igal Foni, R*time has been kicking and creating since their internationally acclaimed debut, "this is R*time" was released in 2009. Regev combines the expressivity of the avant-garde and the technical precision of bop with the farsightedness of a musician in step with her own time. As one of the jazz idiom's oldest, most versatile instruments, the trombone provides both a connection to the past and a link to the future, a place Regev is prepared to take us." ~ Troy Collins, AAJ.
