En Adir

En Adir, subtitled Traditional Jewish Songs, is an album by the Brazilian jazz saxophonist Ivo Perelman, recorded in 1996 and released on the Music & Arts label.

He leads a quartet with pianist Marilyn Crispell, drummer Gerry Hemingway and bassist William Parker.

In his review for AllMusic, Alex Henderson states: "Perelman is no stranger to atonality, but this time, he goes the 'inside/outside' route.

Although some of the 'outside' passages are blistering, he pays a great deal of attention to melody and sounds absolutely delighted by the melodies he's interpreting.

"[1] The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote that the album "is an interesting departure, but it's only intermittently effective.
