Modern Israel’s most beloved poet, Yehuda Amichai, is brought to life like you’ve never heard before. Cellist and composer Adi Sappir and author Lee Kofman offer a stirring, musical rendering of Amichai’s poetry. Weaving the personal and the universal, the sensual and the theological, Amichai inspired international acclaim with his original, accessible and moving verses. This performance illuminates the soul of a poet and a nation, and uplifts audiences anew.
