I will say more in the near future about his incredible talent and share experiences from his life he relayed to me, as well as ones we spent as friends and collaborators. I hope you will all continue to appreciate his talent and send him your love. Th...

Hi All, I assume some of you follow Ari and his trios, quartets and projects. You know he is on the front lines of creative drumming and you can tune in once / month to hear him streamed live from Smalls Jazz Club in NYC (free on YT). He tours the world...anyway, for those unfamiliar with his music ...
