Naomi Shemer: Beyond ‘Jerusalem of Gold’
Hosted By: The Florence Melton School of Adult Jewish Learning
Israeli music owes a lot to the artist Naomi Shemer. In many ways, Shemer helped define the tone and trajectory of Israeli popular music. For example, the genre Shirei Eretz Yisrael (Songs of the Land of Israel) would be far poorer without this sui generis singer/songwriter. In this moving follow-up to Cantor David Lipp’s hit course “Israeli Pop Jamz,” attendees get an overview of her lasting influence and legacy on the corpus of Israeli artistic expression.
