A Peek at Atid, the Future

Last night's benefit show for the Atid Society at JKHA was a rousing success.

14 songs by 24 artists and musicians produced the magic that reminds us of why we go to see music performed live on stage. The show, Produced by Beth Ravin with Musical Direction by Greg Wall, featured 3 different versions of HaTikvah! The first was the traditional opening song. Later, Yossi Piamenta's electric guitar interpretation ignited the stage before his own version of Shedemati. Lastly, Dov Rosenblatt and Diwon led the ensemble in a updated slightly Hip Hop version that's sure to become a hit! "We Hope" the live mixes of these tracks sounds as amazing as they did from the stage.

Check out Diwon's own Shemspeed for the YouTube clip.
