4 encounters in July 2023
The band met weekly in July, as usual, to rehearse. The rehearsals and songs were in Arabic and Hebrew. We played our old songs with simplicity and ease of expression, and we added a new song entitled ‘Love’. It speaks about loving and being loved, and the lyrics talk about joy, pleasure, and optimism.
During this month we are also working on producing and recording an album for the band.
5 encounters in August 2023
The band met in August as usual, to practice the band’s songs for some of the events that were scheduled during this month, most notably the preparation and training for the second Jam Session, which was held at the Felm Center. We performed a mixed list of Arabic, Hebrew, and some European Dutch, Norwegian, Danish, and Finnish songs.
During this month, a farewell party was held for the former director of the Felm Center, Ms. Satu Haapanen, due to her return to her country, Finland. The party was distinguished by the warm and wonderful feelings that the group had for Ms. Satu.
4 encounters in September
2023
The band rehearsed this month in Bonnie's private studio. We had new members joining the band, so we had to rehearse all of our songs. The new members are an Arab and a Jewish singer, whose voices are amazing. We met weekly, as we always do, to rehearse the band’s songs and share some of the updates that occurred during that time, about peace, love, and shared life.
