ARI GOLDWAG - YERUSHALAYIM [A Cappella Lyric] ארי גולדוואג - ירושלים - ווקאלי

Ari Goldwag sings an A Cappella version of the song "Yerushalayim," whose full-music version appears on the album "Lo Nafsik Lirkod." The song is a stunningly-beautiful composition by Yochanan Shapiro, who composed it as he walked through Old City and his 'feet stood in her gates.' The lyrics were written by Miriam Israeli. The video contains powerful photographs by Jonathan Kestenbaum, as well as stills from footage by Yaakov Zire and Yaakov Citron. Ari is accompanied by a choir made up of himself, Moshe Bell and Chesky Leibowitz. A song to listen to whenever the heart yearns for something greater.
