You’ll be taken to a place where harmonies and rhythms meld together naturally, much like peanut butter and jelly. This happens as the musical masterpiece develops.

Hold on to your hats, though, because Asher isn’t quite done shocking you. He deftly combines chromaticism, syncopated rhythms, and creative orchestration into the mix with the dexterity of a tightrope walker juggling burning tambourines. It’s similar to taking a musical stroll through a busy Israeli market where every corner holds a pleasant surprise.
Let’s talk about the musical extravaganza’s crowning achievement: a tribute to none other than the famous Naomi Shemer and her classic work “Yerushalayim Shel Zahav.” By including a variant of the melody from “Yerushalayim Shel Zahav” at the beginning of this work, Asher has added the musical equivalent of fairy dust to it. In place of Kim Kardashian, it’s a melody that sends your heart soaring higher than an eagle flying over the Dead Sea. It’s like having a renowned celebrity cameo in your favorite TV show.
As the music develops, get ready to be carried away by a sea of solemnity and meditation. You’ll be left wondering about life’s great mysteries, like why hummus tastes so dang amazing on everything, due to the slower cadence. You’ll experience an emotional bond that is more enduring and unyielding than the bond between Israelis and their falafel.
In essence, “A Tribute to Israel” is a beautiful mix that combines well-known songs to honor Naomi Shemer’s immeasurable influence. It honors Israeli culture, pays homage to the power of music, and serves as a gentle reminder that life is about more than just settling accounts and untangling cables.
