Experience Miami Heat with Reuben Hoch & 'Time' in a rare New York appearance

NEW YORK (Reuben Hoch and Time/ www.chassidicjazz.com) - Jazz Drummer extraordinaire, Reuben Hoch, hailing from sunny South Florida brings plenty of heat and fire to his three night New York city stint. Hoch known for his cutting edge work with The Chassidic Jazz Project shows his versatility while leading his new jazz trio, Time, joined by pianist Sam Barsh of Avishai Cohen's group and master bassist Ed Schuller of Joe Lovano's band.

Hoch's Chassidic Jazz Project boasts the world's finest musicians such as Weather Report hand drummer Bobby Thomas jr. and reed man Felipe Lamoglia who shares his talents with the bands of Gonzalo Rubalcaba and Arturo Sandoval.
