The 'Queen' of Israeli Popular Music
Shalom Freedman | Jerusalem,Israel | 05/25/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Shoshana Damari who passed away in 2006 was the acknowledged 'Queen of Israeli popular music'. For six decades she inspired, and entertained the people of Israel. During the Israeli War of Independence she was a source of cheer and hope to the embattled population of the Yishuv. She had many great hits through the years but her signature song is the beautiful 'Kalaniyot'.

Her voice was rich and throaty but bell-like in its clarity. She was the kind of singer who sang the lyrics with full feeling for the words. She worked with all the great Israeli songwriters but was especially close to Moshe Wilensky.

This is a beautiful collection of her outstanding songs."
