The Tel Aviv Ensemble Soloists is opening its 24th season next week with a vocal celebration that combines well-known songs for voice and orchestra by Schubert with Israeli songs by Sasha Argov, Mordechai Zaira, Naomi Shemer and Idan Reichel.

The heart of the show will be ‘The Weight of the Land’ – a new work by Israeli composer Alex Wasserman, with lyrics by writer and poet Zvika Nir.
