Reut Regev

[Late]

An Israeli trombonist and "flugabone" player, Ms. Regev is putting something out there that's fresh (if not wholly "new").

One track ("Hula Hula") from her 2009 album is currently available at Amazon as a free download. Right here. Check it out (it's free!), and see what you think.

I've seen her perform with Braxton's 12+1tet. She definitely deserves wider recognition.

Didn't know she'd played with Braxton, but that makes sense. Kind of a Taylor Ho Bynum vibe.

How long has the flugabone been around? I've never heard of one until today. Maybe the bop parallel would be when J.J. played the trombonium.

Good trombone player. Nice person.

I tend to agree with both of you. I enjoyed very much listening to "This Is R Time".

Some previous discussion of the flugabone here. Don't know when it originated, but I know they were around in the 1970's.
