Our Take
Jamie Saft's latest album, "Borscht Belt Studies," is a whimsical journey through the eclectic world of Jewish culture and music. Known for his innovative and genre-bending approach to jazz, Saft effortlessly blends traditional Jewish melodies with modern improvisation, creating a truly unique listening experience. From the opening track, "Bagel Boogie," with its infectious klezmer groove and playful piano riffs, it's clear that Saft is not afraid to have a bit of fun with his music. The album is filled with unexpected twists and turns, from the hauntingly beautiful "Matzo Ballad" to the quirky and upbeat "Schmaltz Shuffle." But don't be fooled by the album's light-hearted charm – there is a depth and complexity to Saft's compositions that will keep you coming back for more. His masterful piano playing is complemented by a stellar lineup of musicians, including Greg Cohen on bass and Ben Perowsky on drums, who bring their own flair to each track. In a music scene dominated by trends and commercialism, "Borscht Belt Studies" stands out as a refreshing and truly original work of art. Jamie Saft has once again proven himself to be a fearless innovator, unafraid to push the boundaries of what jazz music can be. So sit back, pour yourself a glass of Manischewitz, and let yourself be swept away by the delightful sounds of Jamie Saft's "Borscht Belt Studies."
