We recently discovered that three of Israel’s most important musical poets share a birthday on July 13th. Dan Almagor turned 86 this year, Ehud Manor would have been 80, and Naomi Shemer would have turned 91. Today we celebrate the music of these great artists, with popular songs that will undoubtedly have you singing along in no time. Recorded on Tisha B’av, this week’s podcast focuses on the optimistic side of the holiday. While we still have plenty for which to mourn, these great songs help us understand how far our beloved Israel has come in just 73 years. (Original Air Date: July 18, 2021)
