Tribute to Avishai Cohen koncertā izskanēs tādi skaņdarbi, ka Remembering, Two Roses, About A Tree, un citi.

Žurnāls DownBeat Avishai raksturo kā: "pasaules mēroga džeza vizionāru", savukārt žurnāls Bass Player viņu atzina par vienu no 100 ietekmīgākajiem 20. gadsimta basģitāristiem. Cohen raksturīgajā skanējumā savijas Tuvo Austrumu, Austrumeiropas un afroamerikāņu mūzikas idiomas.

Evilena Protektore ir džeza dziedātāja no Latvijas, Latvijas Mūzikas akadēmijas džeza nodaļas maģistrantūras absolvente, kur tagad pasniedz džeza vokālu.
