Notes Music Of Israel: Armed Forces Entertainment Group

Israel is a new country with a new voice. It is the voice of its youth which is exemplified by the various singing groups of the Armed Forces. Each branch of the Israeli military has its own entertainment group. Since every Israeli boy and girl must serve in the military at age eighteen, there is plentiful talent for these groups. 1:48 - n/a
