Poet and composer Naomi Shemer (1930–2004) wrote hundreds of moving, beautiful popular songs, most of which became immortal classics in Israel’s musical tradition. The Quartet performs a special selection of these classics in new and original arrangements. Lely Shemer, Naomi’s daughter, will talk about her mother, her unique life, and her writing and composing so many notable songs. Among Naomi Shemer’s songs to be performed (with audience participation invited!) are: Yerushalayim Shel Zahav, Lu Ye’hi, Ha’ir Be’afor, Machar, Hakol Patuach, Chorshat Ha’Ekaliptus, and many more.
