"Abba osse bushot" | Israel Philharmonic

Ephraim's father is different from all other fathers. He sings songs in the street, insists on kissing Ephraim in front of everyone, and is frightened in scary movies. And is generally very embarrassing. When a baking competition is announced at the kindergarten, Ephraim's father stays up all night baking the winning cake. Is this a recipe for the biggest embarrassment of all?
And maybe this time Ephraim will finally be proud of his father?


Come and listen to Meir Shalev's beautiful story and the Philharmonic's brass quintet blending popular pieces by Bach, Handel, Schumann, Debussy, Joplin, Gershwin and more, in the story.

For ages 5-8


Musicians: Yigal Meltzer, Trumpet | Yuval Shapiro, Trumpet | Hagai Shalom, Horn | Tal Ben Rei, Trombone | Itai Agmon, Tuba

Etty | Hagai Levi - Part 1

Based on the diaries of Etty Hillesum, this series by Golden Globe winner Hagai Levi, ("Be’Tipul"  [In Treatment], "Scenes from a Marriage", "The Affair"), traces the extraordinary personal journey of the young Dutch woman from 1941 to 1943.
In Nazi-occupied Amsterdam, a young woman goes to therapy. 
This is Etty Hillesum. At the age of 27, driven by a deep passion for life, she embarks on a spiritual and emotional journey, all chronicled in her diaries. In them, she unfolds her turbulent love affair with psycho-chirologist Julius Spier - a relationship that becomes the catalyst for a radical inner transformation, accelerated by the growing threat she faces as a Jewish woman, ultimately leading her to an enormous act of solidarity.
Hillesum’s diaries were first published 40 years after her death. Since then, they have been translated into over 20 languages and sold millions of copies worldwide. Told in an unconventional fashion, the series offers a dialogue between past and present, revealing how Etty's striving for meaning continues to resonate today, and evoking the timely question: How do we find hope in a hopeless world?
