For those unaware, the Ize Trio are a multi-cultural music ensemble focused on combining the American art form of Jazz with Middle Eastern traditions.

They collaborate and perform in order to create a more inclusive vision for musical communities and to raise awareness for immigrant rights.

Through their different backgrounds and cultural traditions, they write original music and tell musical stories that are important in opening positive dialogue about the relationship between the US and the Middle East.

Furthermore, they seek to inspire musicians to add their cultural roots to the Jazz tradition and display how music can be a bridge to understanding and connection.

And now Chase Morrin (piano), George Lernis (percussion), and Naseem Alatrash (cello) come together with guest artist Heiraza, along with featuring John Patitucci, to bring forth a brand new recording of original music entitled The Global Suites, which continues to wholly advocate for immigrant rights and equity in all our communities.

This simply breathtaking, organically musical performance opens on the impassioned Break G4S: I. The Machine, the more jaunty, staggered Break G4S: II. Echoes On The Wall, and the Latin-hued hipsway of Break G4S: III. Let Us Out, and then John Patitucci, Farayi Malek & Heiraza come together to bring forth the gently furtive Resurrecting The Amber Sky: I. Present and the aching yearn that thrives within Resurrecting The Amber Sky: II. Past & Future.

Along next is the veritably glistening All Loved: I. Home and the spirited All Loved: II. The Journey, and the collection comes to a close on a trio featuring Heiraza, the frenetically charming Elemeno: I. Be A Kid!, the ornately cultured Elemeno: II. Code Switching, and finally the free flowing, Eastern-tinged Elemeno: III. Discovery.
