Hearts Wide Open

Hearts Wide Open

Hearts Wide Open, Israeli-born guitarist Gilad Hekselman s third album, is a masterful exploration of the contrast and coexistence of simplicity and depth. Comprised of simple, singable melodies, these ten new compositions, even with their complex rhythms and multi- faceted harmonies, breathe a certain air of familiarity. Hekselman possesses an entirely original sound, and the songs on Hearts Wide Open are played with precision and passion by one of the finest groups of jazz artists on the NY jazz scene today.
