:: Release Notes:
::
:: The Idan Raichel Project is the brainchild of Israeli
:: keyboardist, composer, producer, and arranger Idan Raichel,
:: who invited over 70 different musicians from a wide variety
:: of backgrounds to participate in the recordings. In
:: particular, Raichel has long been fascinated by the music of
:: Israel's growing population of Ethiopian Jews, and many songs
:: feature members of Israel's Ethiopian community. The
:: recordings also include Arab musicians, traditional Yemenite
:: vocalists, a toaster and percussionist from Suriname and a
:: South African singer, among others.
::
:: The Project released its first album in Israel in 2002 and
:: quickly became one of the biggest success stories in the
:: history of Israeli popular music. The haunting Ethiopian
:: chorus of the first single, "Bo'ee" (Come With Me), sounded
:: completely unlike anything most Israeli's had heard before.
:: The groundswell of interest propelled the album to heights
:: rarely seen in the local music scene and firmly established
:: Idan Raichel as a new type of Israeli pop star. Now a musical
:: icon in the Israeli community worldwide, The Idan Raichel
:: Project has performed to sell-out crowds in prestigious
:: venues in Paris, Brussels, New York, Los Angeles, Singapore
:: and beyond.
::
:: The international release of The Idan Raichel Project's
:: recordings on the new record label Cumbancha promises to
:: introduce a wide new audience to the electrifying work of
:: this unique musical collective. The Project offers a new
:: vision for how Israelis, their neighbors in this volatile
:: region, and people all over the world, can cherish their
:: individual cultural traditions, celebrate their differences
:: and through respectful collaboration create new and inspiring
:: expressions. "Our ability to live in peace with one other
:: depends on our learning to appreciate and respect each
:: other's differences," notes Idan. "The way forward is not by
:: trying to change your neighbor, but by accepting him and
:: recognizing that we are all looking for the same things in
:: life: bread, water, spirit, respect and love."
