Need to hear some new sounds?
Try the Ofer Mizrahi Trio, which will bring its sounds of folk and jazz, Turkish, Indian and Caucasian music to Jerusalem’s Confederation House on September 28.
Ofer Mizrahi plays the Leviathan or whale guitar, an instrument he designed and built as an advanced version of an Indian slide guitar with 24 strings.
Through his music Mizrahi aims for a range of sounds between East and West, and looks to integrate what he learned from Hindustani music master Pandit Buddhadev Das-Gupta.
He’s also brought those sounds to his collaborative work with Israeli musicians Idan Raichel, Omri Mor, Ravid Kahlani, Ester Rada, Liraz Charhi, Riff Cohen and others.

Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
