Review by Eytan:
The concert took place in the Rishon Le
Zion auditorium. It was full house.
The first part was with Yoni Rechter on the piano and with musicians
from the Rishon Le Zion symphony orchestra
with a celesta, violin, cello, contra bass, harp, saxophone, clarinet, flute,
percussion, guitar and a vibraphone.
The
list of songs on the first part:
layla layla
neula he dalti
besade patuach
yesterday

shir eres+do do
ten li yad
ve'ulay
me'emek ve'givaa

The second part was the Rishon Le Zion symphony orchestra (a marvelous
orchestra)
with Rafi Kadishzon conducting.
The song list from the second part:
shir hanoded
pavane
hinach yafa
hitrgoot

cancion de cuna para dormir a un negrito

Ziununay Haderech was an encore.
Then the manor of the town came on stage and presented Esther with the city
medal made by the famous
artist Yaacov Agam and invited Esther
to the next year festival.
After this Esther sang ten li yad with the whole orchestra.
Esther was in a good voice and mood and gave a very nice concert.
Many
thanx to Eytan!
