While drummer Jeff Ballard splashes on cymbal-ine tones,  the hued horns of the young and adventurous Jimmy Greene, Jazz Messenger  Steve Davis and new-old band mate Avi Lebovich blend earthy and ethereal  themes across the musical landscape.   <\/p>\n<p>  From the opening background four-string struts of &#8220;Shuffle&#8221; to the spare shades of &#8220;Emotions,&#8221; the soulful washes of  &#8220;Shay Ke&#8221; and the deep tribal whispers of &#8220;De Ye Tan Di&#8221; (all of which  feature the bright vocal tints of Claudia Acu\u00f1a), composer Cohen offers a  crayon box-full of visual connotations. Amos Hoffman&#8217;s oud work on &#8220;Balkan&#8221;  gives this far away piece an authentic nearness. Though the painter&#8217;s hand  is not always obvious in the art itself, the influence of the young bass  master is evident.  <\/p>\n<p>  \u00a9 2001 M. S.
