Jerusalem, [April 2th 2024] Mariachi Jerusalem is pleased to announce an exciting collaboration with the Jewish-Mexican singer Yosef Daniel in the production of the traditional song "Vehi Sheamda." This collaboration marks a milestone in Mariachi Jerusalem's ongoing project of reinterpreting traditional Jewish songs in mariachi style, merging the richness of Jewish culture with the passion of mariachi.

The song "Vehi Sheamda," originally composed by the Israeli singer-songwriter Yotanan Razel, is an emblematic piece sung during the festival of Pesach (Jewish Passover), celebrating the freedom and salvation of the Jewish people from the hands of HaShem throughout history. As part of their commitment to preserving the essence of traditional Jewish songs while giving them a fresh and distinctive touch, Mariachi Jerusalem aims to maintain the original style of the song while infusing the characteristic color and energy of mariachi.

The collaboration with Yosef Daniel, a talented singer whose unique and emotive voice has captivated audiences in various countries, promises to deliver a memorable rendition of "Vehi Sheamda." This special production will be released on April 14, one week before Pesach, allowing listeners to immerse themselves in the festive spirit of the season and enjoy this beautiful song as they prepare for the celebrations.

Yochanan Peretz, founder, director, and producer of Mariachi Jerusalem, commented: "We are excited to collaborate with Yosef Daniel on this special production of 'Vehi Sheamda.' With this song, we continue our commitment to take Jewish music to new heights, blending tradition with innovation. We hope this unique interpretation touches the hearts of all who hear it."

Mariachi Jerusalem invites all music lovers to join them on this unique musical journey as they celebrate the rich cultural heritage of the Jewish people and the joy of the Pesach festival.
