"Living the dream" is a phrase we musicians use with a bit of sarcasm when on the road, touring, driving for 7 hours straight to the next show or waking up at 5am to catch a plane after only 3 hours of sleep. This "gallows humor" is very funny when you're sleep deprived, but the truth is we all know very well that our lives are a dream come true -to live a life doing what we love the most - making music. Inside this large dream there are many small ones that we fantasize about. Some come true and some don't, but we keep trying, moving forward from one dream to the next.
Israeli Song is the story of a little dreamy boy who heard Ron Carter's walking bass on a Miles Davis record and wished he was Wayne Shorter. It's about a teenager who heard Joe Henderson playing at the Red Sea Jazz Festival on the radio (because he was not old enough to travel on his own) and wished that one day he'd be "gliding" on top of Al Foster's ride symbol. It is also about a young student who was in awe when he first heard Brad Mehldau play "All the Things You Are" at the Village Vanguard, and was instantly opened to a new way of approaching tradition.
I am forever grateful to have been able to record this album which is a reflection of who I am: an Israeli boy who fell in love with Jazz, envisioned life as a Jazz musician, now playing his own song alongside his heroes - an Israeli Song.

"A young tenor saxophonist from Israel, Eli Degibri, is just starting to be known
in New York...Don't miss him. He commanded attention when he toured with Herbie Hancock. He's a very modern improviser, superartful; his creations are spiky and fractured but immaculately sculptured." - Ben Ratliff, The New York Times

"...a very talented composer, arranger and performer... he continually demonstrates a natural ability toward effective teamwork, focus, willingness to listen, and eagerness to learn, the caliber of which is a rare find in jazz today... Eli's music treads uncharted waters... he has the potential to be a formidable force in the evolution of jazz."
- Herbie Hancock
