MARK FELDMAN GROUP

Virtuoso Feldman is mainly known for the important role he plays in John Zorn’s Masada Chamber Ensemble and the Masada String Trio. Lesser known is the fact that this recognized downtown violinist started off as a session musician in Nashville andplayed with Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson before he moved to New York. This unsuspected side of Feldman explains why he is so successful in uniting the worlds of jazz, improvised and classical music in a sound that never sounds forced.
