For me it's Israel's second anthem.

First of all, the playing is from the Jewish soul. Nothing like it. The melody makes you cry and it has the pain, feelings of love and soul of our Jewish people! G-d bless you and protect you!!!❤

Thank you so much, Stacy! We play from the soul and for the souls of our people - just as you said. 💙🤍💙

Amazing ,fantastic well done Ben and Paul

[@chutneyband]

Thanks Marom!

[@debbiemail1]

I really enjoyed this rendition of this 'golden' oldie. Ben has a rich sensual tone and can easily rely on the musicianship of the accompanist Paul. Also, the camera work and ambience adds to the whole feeling of mystery. As if the music is weaving a spell over the listener. I'm looking forward to more from this Chutney mob.

[@chutneyband]

Thanks Debbie - more to come soon!

Beautiful! What is the chord the lower violin is playing at 1:31 ?

[@chutneyband]

So glad you enjoyed it, Sam! The double stops there are: D (on G string) and Bb (on D string) = Bb major chord Db (on G string) and Bb (on D string) = G half diminished chord C (on G string) and Bb (on D string) = C dominant seventh chord

Helloooo... You guys are incredible... could you provide the sheet music for this song? I appreciate it very much... a big huge from Argentina

Hi, sorry for the delay. We're very sorry but we don't have sheet music for this song! It's semi-improvised. If you send us a message here www.chutneyband.com/about-us I can explain more - maybe we can help you.

The Jerusalem that now is will pass away and The NEW Jerusalem will come down out of heaven at the second coming as the HOME for Yahweh's saints during Yahshua's thousand year reign on the earth made new sitting on David's throne ruling the nations as KING of kings and LORD of lords. Rev 20: 4 and 6. Isa 2: 3- 4. Isa 11: 9. Isa 66: 22- 23. Micah 4: 2- 3. Zeck 14: 9. Matt 5: 5. Rev 5: 10. Believe these things, Look for these things and you will receive these things. Look not to the things of this world as they will pass away, But rather look for things not seen. These things to tell you this day are coming for all who believe these things. FAITH. Rev 21: 1- 7.
