“Dekel Bor and his band are the future of jazz" (Yossi Harsonsky,Maariv)

“Dekel Bor and his trio make some of the finest jazz that I have ever heard"

( Neil Feldman, publisher- NOB Magazine )

The Dekel Bor trio is a New York City based modern jazz group that is both dynamic and expressive. A diverse cultural collaboration, Dekel Bor, David Ruffels and Nadav Snir-Zelniker are combining the jazz traditions of small ensemble playing with modern world-music infusions. Seeking to incorporate melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic textures within an improvisational framework, the trio has developed a unique and personal interaction based on intensive listening and musical trust.

Consisting primarily of compositions written by Dekel Bor, the trio's original repetoire is open to constant expansion and revision through the evolution of its musicianship. Each member contributes an integral element to the ever-changing and forward moving arrangements.

Dekel Bor is a 24 year-old Guitarist-composer from Israel. In 2003 Dekel received the prestigious “Young Beacons In Jazz" award. He performed in major festivals with the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra as well as with jazz legend Reggie Workman. Dekel endorses American-Archtop Guitars,Mesa Boogie and Acoustic Image Amps,Bag-End Speakers and Thomastk-Infeld Strings.

Francois got a degree as an engineer and a Doctorat in Physics when 24 years old.

Three years later, becoming a member of Martial SOLAL’s trio, he is one of the most praised young European jazz bass players.
