Night Stroll Jerusalem
The Original Text from the homepage of Night Stroll “”
(i am still working on the video)
“At midnight, when everyone else is sleeping and the city goes quiet, we will open the gates of the Tower of David and invite you in for a night of musical surprises spanning all of the world’s continents.
As every year, we invite you to join us from midnight to sunrise to stroll through the tower’s magical spaces and into the white light. To wander from Indian devotional singing to ancient Persian melodies served up with an electronic vibe, from the songs of Carlebach with a twist of reggae to the realm of the psychedelic meeting the African savannah, and to create your very own nighttime experience. This year you can also enter a pitch black room where your eyes won’t confuse your brain with visual information and you can recharge your senses with music that will permeate your ears, your feet, and your heart.”
“As the first rays of sun appear above the Old City, we will gather together around the central stage for a special performance by Yasmin Levy, daughter of Jerusalem, who combines Ladino music, Flamenco dancing, and traditional Spanish rhythms in a journey that is one great love song—to Jerusalem, to rhythm, and to humankind.
