I just discovered Hava Nagila, the version of Iosef Kobzon, the Russian legend. The orchestration and the effect of the choir is fantastic!
Another very good version is the one of Rika Zarai, from 1966.
I just love this song! Maybe because it has some far influences from my romanian folklor. It is said that the motif of the song and the dance afferent to it originates in Bukovina, which was in the past part of the Great Romania. The rithm and the dance style is called "hora". Anyways, the joy transmited in this song is obvious, it is really lifting the spirit up. Enjoy it!
Introduction
- Mirela Berghian
- Ragusa, Sicily, Italy
- I was born in Deva, Romania, on 14 January 1978. In 2000 I graduated the Faculty of European Studies within "Babes-Bolyai" University in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Since 2003 I started to work in tourism and had the chance to travel and live in Egypt and Arab Emirates for more than 6 years. Egypt will remain the dearest place to me, it's beauty is authentic and sacred, while the warmth of people has no match. At the end of 2010 I made it to Sicily and I just love the place. It is true, "without seeing Sicily, it is not possible to make a full idea of Italy. Sicily is the key to everything", as Goethe said in his Italian Journey, 1788. My passion for photography grew in time and now I find it the best way to express my emotions. Thank you for sparing some of your time to visit my blogs.
