Fresh Sound Records, a Spanish record label specializing in American jazz, announces the September 2 release of For Emotional Use Only, a new album by New York City based jazz guitarist Rotem Sivan.
Sivan fuses classical music and jazz with ethnic elements to create a new approach to traditional guitar trio instrumentation.
Fresh Sound Records owner Jordi Pujol, who’s been overseeing the production of the new CD, says: “We are excited to have Rotem Sivan as part of our portfolio. He is truly an original guitarist who is set for a bright future and will shape and influence guitar jazz for generations to come.”
Established in 1983, Fresh Sound Records releases the work of both upcoming and renowned jazz performers.
“When Fresh Sound Records gave me the opportunity to jointly produce a trio album I felt a great sense of honor,” says Sivan.
Featuring Rotem Sivan on guitar, Mark McLean on drums and Haggai Cohen Milo on bass, the album includes five original compositions as well as two jazz standards.
