CD Reviews

A serious composition of music

Madison Skinner | Springfield, NE United States | 12/06/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The artists on this CD have formed an interesting and moving insight into the Jewish music. The music at times can be very operatic in nature and at other times they can be so riveting you feel yourself being moved by the pure poetry of their assonance. If you want to have several emotions at once this would be the one to get for your collection. You get to hear the words of the Hebrew language and it so beautiful. If you don't understand Hebrew it does not really matter I believe the essence of the language is there and you will understand their intentions and meaning. You are constantly swept in emotions when you hear the lyrics and rhythm."
