‘Dawn of a New Day’ produced by “Spectrum – Jerusalem House of Culture and Art”
Two musical performances that deal with hope and renewal, reflecting the spirit of the times, the great rift, the abysmal pain, the unceasing hope that has been beating within us for two years for the day when a new dawn will dawn upon us.
A connection between leading Israeli musicians and Jerusalem musicians whose worlds were shaken by the war in one way or another in the deepest and most painful way.
Artists who experienced the worst and found the strength to embark on a journey of healing, renewal, and hope that may finally await us when the morning dawns.
On the first evening, Geva Alon , a singer, songwriter and guitarist, one of the leaders of Israeli indie, will host a show featuring Yael Bronstein – “Yael the Exaggerator”, a Jerusalem singer and creator who herself draws from pop and indie sources and sings in Hebrew and English.
Geva is a resident of Ma’ale Gamla in the southern Golan Heights, which, like the entire north, has been a severe war zone since October 8, 2023, which has greatly influenced artists whose lives were centered there. Geva’s songs, known for their textual sensitivity and dreamy, caressing melodies, express feelings of loneliness, a search for meaning, longing for places and people, and hope for a better world.
The bereaved met Yael when her brother-in-law, the late Arnon Zmora, was killed in Gaza on a mission to rescue hostages. Together, Geva and Yael will join musical forces on stage.
