Saxophonist, composer, and bandleader Eli Degibri delivers charismatic performances as “an exception­ally melodic improviser with a big, bold tenor tone" (Bill Milkowski, JazzTimes). The Israeli–born musi­cian made his bones with the groups of Herbie Hancock and Al Foster; he possesses, said Hancock, “the potential to be a formidable force in the evolution of jazz.” Now a skilled leader in his own right, Degibri has assembled an incandescent quartet of youthful compatriots, including pianist Tom Oren and drummer Eviatar Slivnik. At this writing, Eli Degibri is at work on his next recording project: A tribute to legend­ary saxophonist Hank Mobley – one of Degibri’s biggest inspirations – and specifically to Mobley's 1960 hard–bop masterpiece, Soul Station. "If you haven’t played the record yet this, now, is your second and final phase of the journey and the integration of Soul Station, volumes 1 (1960) & 2 (2018) into the modern jazz hall of fame" (Derek Ansell). The combination of musicianship and material will make this Jazz Standard appearance a night to remember – don’t miss it!   Eli Degibri – tenor & soprano saxophones Tom Oren – piano Tamir Shmerling – bass Eviatar Slivnik – drums
