| Notes | Folk Music of Israel Hillel and Aviva are a husband and wife duo and today's program presents 3 selections performed at concerts and recorded live. They first met in 1946, but did not perform together until 1948, during a visit to the USA. Aviva uses a "tof miriam", a small clay pot covered over in goat skin. Hillel uses a "halil", a shepherd's pipe. 1) V'haya Bayom Hahu, When Judgment Day Comes, is from the book of Zachariah. 1:55 - 5:03 2) Al'Chomo-tayich Y'rushalaim, At Your Wall, Jerusalem, is a very stirring and lively song about the liberation of the City. 5:58 - 8:41 3) Shach Evrak, Land, My Land, is a joyous song to the changing by the pioneers of the desert to land that could be cultivated. 9:22 - 12:35 |
