Aryeh Kobrinsky
Having toured Europe, North Africa, Canada and the United States Aryeh has performed with a wide variety of artists including Tyshawn Sorey, Hal Crook, Andrew D’Angelo, Matt Wilson, Bob Moses and Dominique Eade. Currently he can often be heard with with John McNeil’s Hush Point, The New Old Timers, Bob Moses, Perfect Friend and last but not least, his own quintet Brinsk.
In 2015, Aryeh switched to tuning his bass in fifths, an octave below cello: C - G - D - A. The conversion to the new tuning was a major undertaking as he essentially had to unlearn and relearn the entire instrument. His solo project “Solo Shmolo” has been a gradual documentation of the process. Aryeh is currently finishing up his solo bass record which will be released in September 2018.

Upright bassist and composer Aryeh Kobrinsky formed Brinsk to incarnate his vision (or, if you will, hallucination) of hamsters singing classical operatic arias over metal-rock based rhythms. However, the band is acoustic ...
