965: Hagai Bilitzky on New Sound of the Middle East

Hagai Bilitzky recently released a new album titled New Sound of the Middle East.  Hagai specializes in the Middle Eastern double bass and is an active performer and teacher based in Jerusalem.  We spoke live for the podcast at the 2018 European Bass Congress in Lucca.

Today, we talk about the story behind this new album, what Hagai has been up to the past few years, double bass in Middle Eastern music, and much more.

Enjoy, and be sure to check out the new album and follow along with Hagai on Spotify, Apple Music, and bandcamp!

They encourage students to reach out to the great bassists in their area for lessons and direction. Many of the bassists from all of the city's ensembles are more than willing to lend a hand.
