“THE HEBREW BOOK” IS BACK…
|
‘The Hebrew Book’ is back live in September at the Jüdisches Kultur Festival in Osnabrück, Germany and later this year, a revisit to Berlin.
|
Back in 2008, the album ‘’Sensitive Hours” (Shaot Regishot) was released .. A very special collection of music featuring many songs sung in his native language, Hebrew, for the very first time. The album was an amazing success, being awarded Gold sales status and gaining massive airplay and popularity. Now, 17 years later, Avishai felt it was time to revisit those special songs & sounds live again. Featuring some of those gifted musicians from 2008, including Yonotan Voltzok on trombone, and recent new arrivals to Avishai’s musical world, including talented Eviatar Slivnik on drums, 21-year-old Itay Simhovich (piano) and the gifted Yuval Drabkin on Saxophone. And for the very first time, joining Avishai on stage, the wonderful Hadas Kleinman on Cello and Vocals.
|
The Hebrew Book ‘Chapter 2 ‘ is a 6-piece ensemble from Israel paying tribute to Cohen’s heritage.
|
“This band and music is very close to my heart. It includes my friends and many influences and inspirations that I have experienced since my childhood. Unlike other previous touring projects, it solely has text and vocals in Hebrew, which draws me closer to myself and the deepest emotions within me.”
