The setting was the acoustically wonderful Recanati Auditorium of the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. The occasion was the gala concert by the Israel Chamber Orchestra before its departure for a grand tour of nine Latin American countries. The audience of the sold-out performance was graced by the presence no less than six Ambassadors – Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico, Uruguay – and many Consular representatives from around the world. Also present were several Israeli VIP’s, including Ms. Orit Noked, Minister of Agriculture.

"Escalandrum", the orchestra of Daniel "Pipi" Piazzolla (grandson of the famous Astor Piazzolla) will be appearing in Israel at the "Shablul" Club in Tel Aviv's port, on 11 and 12 September 2012. There will be two performances each day.

Stone seal may prove story of Samson

A small stone seal found recently in excavations of Tel Beit Shemesh, which could be the first archaeological evidence of the story of the biblical Samson.

 

Israel is known for its rich culture and history with archeologists' constantly unearthing artifacts of biblical proportions. The latest finding was a small stone seal found recently in excavations of Tel Beit Shemesh, which could be the first archaeological evidence of the story of the biblical Samson.
