Ayelet Rose Gottlieb Sextet at Jazz Standard

Ayelet Rose Gottlieb Sextet¹s Debut at the Jazz Standard

“A commanding vocalist” — New York Times

“The elegance in this music is juxtaposed against the rawness of its
sensuality” — Billboard

A.R.G. Sextet explores the balance between improvisation and the written

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. among others. Arrangements include tunes by
Ornette Coleman and Bob Dylan.…
