ABOUT
Di Gasn Trio is an Israeli indie-folk acoustic band, chiefly influenced by the music of the Balkan region and Eastern Europe, blending additional elements of jazz, Arabic, and classical music.
Gal Klein (clarinetist and singer specializing in klezmer music, member of Ramzailech Band) and Yanush Hurwitz (accordionist specializing in Balkan music) met at the Jerusalem Academy of Music in 2013. The fusion of these two musical "worlds," though seemingly far apart, actually embrace one another, creating a unique musical result.
The many performances of the band in pubs, weddings, and other venues around Israel aroused a wide variety of human feelings and responses. This led to a desire to document and spread the music of the band, described as an Israeli contemporary creation, maintaining the musical styles of Eastern European cultures, while renewing and refreshing the "old" culture, thus producing new Israeli folklore.
The first album of the band came out in 2015, and the second album was released in 2018.
The band conducted appearances abroad, among them:
Klang Basel Music and Arts Festival, Switzerland, 2016
World music series at the Chinese National Center for the Performing Arts (NCPA), Beijing, China, 2017.
Represented the State of Israel at the international Expo exhibition, Astana, Kazakhstan, 2017.
Represented the State of Israel at TIBE (Taiwan International Book Exhibition), Taipei, Taiwan, 2018.
Participated in IDAN RAICHEL ‘Live Park’ concert series, Israel, 2018.
