Description
The Idan Raichel Project Returns With the new album "Quarter To Six", the follow up to the critically acclaimed Tel Aviv Session with Vieux Farka Toure from 2012.
Featuring collaborations with Ana Moura (Portugal), Vieux Farka Touré (Mali), Marta Gómez (Colombia), Andreas Scholl (Germany), Mira Awad (Israel-Palestine) and some of Israel's top young voices.
To say Israeli keyboardist and composer Idan Raichel has been busy since The Idan Raichel Project's last album Within My Walls was released would be an understatement. In the past four years, Raichel has released a 3-disc live album set, written numerous songs and toured with GRAMMY winner India Arie, performed at the Nobel Peace Prize awards ceremony, co-written a song calling for racial harmony with Israeli President and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Shimon Peres, performed for President Obama and family at the Kennedy Center on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, performed at the ceremony inaugurating the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial in Washington DC, sold out shows at Radio City Music Hall and other major venues worldwide, toured India, South America and Africa and released the highly praised Tel Aviv Session album with Malian guitarist Vieux Farka Touré.
In that prolific span, Idan Raichel somehow managed to find the time to create perhaps the most enchanting Idan Raichel Project album to date, Quarter To Six.
