From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Or Solomon is an Israeli pianist and composer who views the piano as a “sound generator, channeling the entire emotional spectrum.”[1]

He was classically trained throughout his youth and has been influenced by a wide range of music from classical to contemporary, including minimalism, African traditional, African American music, Black French music, free jazz, pop and rock. He moved to Paris in 1993 and is currently based in Berlin.

Solomon is also an improvisational pianist. For Nuit Blanche 2013 he performed at the Galeries nationales du Grand Palais within the retrospective exhibition of Cubist artist Georges Braque.[2]
