The evening opens with a choice of five different guided tours dedicated to the composers and songs written about our beloved city: tours of the Jerusalem of Yitzhak Shalev or Yehuda Amichai, a tour tracing the story of the song “Jerusalem of Gold,” songs and melodies around the city walls, and even a tour exploring songs about Jerusalem written abroad.

The tours will take place near the museum, in the Old City and in downtown Jerusalem, and will conclude at the Tower of David.

After the tours and a short coffee break, we will gather in the Citadel courtyard for the performance “Love Songs for Jerusalem”.

We will sing the most beautiful and moving songs written about Jerusalem over the years, and listen to stories and anecdotes about them. The event hostedis by Tal Naeh, musician, composer, singer and creator, music lecturer and host of experiential sing-along evenings. Special guest: Shuli Natan!
