UO Today Show #363 Idan Raichel

This episode features Idan Raichel, the musician whose work has electrified fans in Israel, and around the world. He invited more than 70 musicians from vastly different ethnic backgrounds to collaborate on an album filled with blends of Ethiopian folk music, Arabic poetry, Yeminite chants, Biblical psalms and Caribbean rhythms. The music achieved huge success in Israel, offering new ideas about how individuals can maintain their traditions, celebrate their differences, and still respect each other. Humanities Center Director Steve Shankman interviews faculty, staff, and visiting lecturers about their research and interests for a 30 minute show that gives an inside look at the University of Oregon.

To Danybella - Its a silver round plate with one of god's hebrew names imprinted on it, in jewish mysticism (the kabala) there are 72 different names for god. such a medallion worn for good luck, protection and other blessings, we call it "kamea". all tne best from israel.
