“Brave,” “spiritual,” “powerful,” “brilliant,” and “hypnotic” are reactions to Dani’s debut solo album.
Danny earned a JUNO nomination & ECMA award for his work in the Jerry Granelli Trio where his live performance contributions were praised (“extraordinary” Jazz Chronicles). Dani and Sageev Oore’s CBC-recorded duo album, Radical Cycle, was lauded (“stunning” and “masterful” Classical Modern Music Review), and nominated for an ECMA for Best Classical Recording.
Dani’s music is featured in over twenty specials for CBC and Bravo in collaborations with artists across different traditions and disciplines, including soundtracks for Jasmine Oore, and electronic, and orchestral commissions.
Daniel works internationally as an actor and choreographer-dancer.
“Oore’s palpable fragility . . . is one of the most devastating things I’ve ever witnessed in a theatre.” (Cult MTL)
