Yair Dalal was nominated for a 2002 BBC Radio 3 World Music Award.  His
music is a mix of his own Iraqi-Jewish musical heritage and Israeli
Beduin traditions with original material inspired by both.  He uses his
music as a cultural bridge between Arabs and Jews in the Middle East.
Dalal performed with Israeli and Palestinian children choirs  at the
1994 Israeli-Palestinian Peace ceremony in Oslo, Norway.
