Noa Jewish Yemenite Music موسيقى يهودية يمني מוסיקה תימני

Achinoam Nini (Hebrew: אֲחִינוֹעַם נִינִי Aẖinóʻam Nini; born June 23, 1969), also known by her professional name, Noa, is a leading Israeli international concert and recording artist.Born in Tel Aviv to a Jewish family of Yemenite descent. Noa lived in New York City from age 2.[citation needed] and attended SAR Academy primary school, and the Rabbi Joseph H. Lookstein Upper School of Ramaz High School, and remained in New York until her return to Israel alone at the age of 17. After serving the mandatory two years in the Israeli Army in a military entertainment unit.[citation needed], Noa studied music at the Rimon School, where she met her long-time partner and collaborator Gil Dor.

As a duo, their music styles are pop, rock, blues, R&B, country, country western, folk, Yemenite & Italian folk. Noa has recorded numerous songs in Italian, French, Spanish, Galician, English, Arabic, Hebrew, Thai, Hindi, Yemenite Jewish and folk & Arabic pop songs as well as Jewish and Christian prayers translated into Hebrew and English.

Noa and Gil Dor have had various different ensembles since their early days as an acoustic duet but their most long lived musical relationship has been with the noted percussionist Zohar Fresco. The three have played hundreds of concerts together all over the world. The ensembles vary from album to album ranging from rhythm section through Solis String Quartet and up to symphonic tours. Noa's music is most prominently influenced by the singer-songwriters of the 60s, such as Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, and James Taylor. These musical and lyrical sensibilities, combined with Noa's Yemenite roots and Gil Dor's strong background in jazz, classical, country and rock, have created Noa and Gil Dor's unique sound, manifested in hundreds of songs written and performed together. Noa plays percussion, guitar and piano. She is married to Dr. Asher Barak, they have two children, Ayehli and Enea. The family makes its home in Israel.

She, together with Arab-Israeli singer Mira Awad, represented her country at Eurovision Song Contest 2009 with the song There Must Be Another Way, qualifying to the final from the first semi final and evetually finishing in 16th place.

the text is hebrew phrases with yemenite accent from a traditional poem that the jewish (not only yemenite) sing every week in a traditional ceremony at the end of Sabbat- the holly day.

the poet is Rabbi Shalem Shabazi, maybe the most important leader of the Jewish-Yemenite community, that lived in the 17th centory.

ليش سمة التشدد اصبحت منتشرة؟

يعني يهوديات طحتوا فيهم لعن

والي يقول اقتلوهم

وش التفكير الأعوج هذا ؟

الرسول اللهم اصلي واسلم عليه كان جاره يهودي ويعطيه حق الجيرة

اليهوديات من اهل الكتاب ويجوز الزواج منهم

فلماذا المبالغة والتشدد القمعي الاقصائي

اليهود يجوز التعايش معهم واكل مأكلهم والتزوج من نسائهم واعطائهم حقوقهم كاملة

ولا يجوز الاعتداء الا على من اعتدى عليك فقط

@aTime4UandMe This style is not jewish yemenite, it has vibrato, it sounds like jazz.

@dssdmffm Sorry too say that, i don't to offend you personally, but allah is not the True God.

[opus88888]

This is wrong. Jewish Yemenite songs do not use vibrato.
