The Israel Philharmonic plays Hatikvah (Israel anthem) conducted by Lahav Shani

The afternoon of the fifth of the Hebrew month of Iyar.
The Israel Philharmonic plays Hatikvah.
In 1948, the orchestra played the anthem of the newly born State.
Outside, on Rothschild Blvd., an audience gathered, who didn't yet know that they were "Israeli".
Today, 72 years later, the orchestra plays the anthem again conducted by Lahav Shani our designate Music Director. It may not be the same excitement of 1948, but our joint hope for harmony still fills our hearts when hearing the beloved sounds of Hatikvah.
Director: Christophe Boula
Operators: Thibaut Venendy, Tristan Lagorce, Adrien Gontier, Pascal Azoulay, Stephane Caillenton, Damian Dufrsne, Nir from CRS
Sound: Jiri Heger
Produced by Amos Rozenberg for Paramax Films

The Jewish people are an inspiration to me because they have not only survived in the face of oppression and marginalization but later thrived despite whatever situation they are put in.

As Israelis, we bring them good conditions and we wanted to live in peace, until they came in and slaughtered us, murdered us, raped us, tortured us and kidnapped us. They are none other than Nazis, and this is how we will treat them, free Israel from the Palestinians.
