When Way Opens: Live Improvisations
with Ariel Burger, guitar

Picture
"This CD is a great contribution to the tradition of solo improv on the violin.  Yael Bat-Shimon creates a multicolored sound-world that draws people into a very intense awareness.  I also appreciate her willingness and ability to stretch the listener's attention out over a period of time, and reel them in slowly."
- Stephen Nachmanovitch, Free Play: Improvisation in Life And Art
