On Occasion of Ramadan and Rosh Hashana
"Derech-As-Salaam" in Concert
The Palestinian-Israeli Trio performs popular and folk oriental music,
as well as original music written by the group, in Arabic and Hebrew.
The group's credo is that music can bring people together on the basis of
listening, respect, inter-cultural exchange and curiosity, and that by
showing how musicians in our region can communicate regardless of their
religion and origin, so can the listeners.
