[HANASHIR:17023] amazing concert/new music online

[SELINGER <SELINGER...>]

Imagine Jewish, Muslim, and Christian musicians sharing the stage in a 
musical celebration inspired by the spirit of peace. 

Imagine two gifted singers, one Israeli and one Palestinian, weaving their
respective prayer melodies together in an invocation asking for divine 
inspiration to bring this musical, magical happening to fruition.

It's called "The Spirit of Fes" and this amazing concert tour will visit
more than a dozen cities in the coming weeks. Find the schedule and more
info at http://www.spiritoffes.com . 

One of the Jewish performers, Gabriel Meyer, very generously gave me
permission to post one of his songs online. It's from the CD "Merkavah."
Here's the link to listen:

The song is entitled "Love" and here are the lyrics and translation:
"Hareini mekabel alai et mitsvat haboreh veahavta lereachah camochah," 
meaning "I take upon myself to bond with the Creator's Commandment: Love 
your kin as yourself." Leviticus:19/morning prayers.
