Yael Bat-Shimon, described by The Boston Globe as an “adventurous contemporary violinist” whose improvisational work “draws on her classical training as well as non-Western musical traditions,” has performed for audiences from Paris, France to Cambridge, MA. Her music was featured in the Fall 2008 edition of the arts and culture e-zine "Zingology", which called her improvisations “fiery interpretations of European and American folk traditions squarely anchored on her classical training.” Her first CD, “When Way Opens: Live Improvisations”, was released in March of 2010.
