SHEVA

Live In Australia

(Globalev Music/OmLev Music)

CULLED FROM FOUR PERFORMANCES IN SYDNEY and Melbourne on a 21-show tour during 2004, Sheva's fourth CD, Live In Australia, captures the Israeli world music ensemble al its hypnotic and impossibly transcendent best.

The album was conceived as a "peace through music" mission that reaffirms indigenous traditions, and its greatest success is presenting the band and tour's concept, as well as the ecstatic response of the live audience. Sung primarily in Hebrew (with English translations in a beautifully produced CD-ROM booklet) and performed with a variety of pan-Middle Eastern string and wind instruments, Live In Australia mixes the best elements of free-flowing "jam band" performance and tight funk/rock song structures. Moored by Gil Ron Shama's percussion and drummer Lior Shulman's intuitive interplay, the CD's complex rhythm and melody arrangements make the songs function remarkably well as audience sing-alongs, most notably the galloping "In The Streets of Jerusalem" and the closing farewell "Salaam."
