The New York Times: calls Idan Raichel an ‘Israeli Singer of the world’…
Billboard Magazine calls Idan Raichel ‘One of the most fascinating titles to emerge in world music’,
Idan Raichel was one of the first Israeli musicians to collaborate and fuse different cultural sounds together, such as traditional Middle Eastern instruments with electronic sounds, combining Israeli music with regions from West Africa to Latin America and India. The songs are filled with Hebrew, Arabic, Amharic, Swahili, Spanish & Creole Portuguese lyrics. He has worked with about 100 different musicians and singers including 5-time Grammy award winner, India Arie. His music promotes understanding and exposure towards Israeli multiculturalism. Given that Rachiel’s music is so distinct and loved internationally, he is an important part of our first gala as a representative of the essence of MCI.
VIP After- Party with The Idan Raichel Project
In a exotic Moroccan atmosphere, guests will celebrate the launch of Motek Cultural Initiative featuring a meet & greet with The Idan Raichel Project, DJ, belly dancers, live band, hor- d’oeuvre, dessert and cash bar.
Help make a difference in how Israel is viewed in the world and
Let it’s music be the tool to transcend barriers!
