One of famed Israeli singer-songwriter David Broza's best-known songs, “Bedouin Love Song” is taken from his new album with The Andalucian Orchestra Ashkelon entitled Andalucian Love Song.
“Bedouin Love Song was one of the first songs I recorded. The music was written by a great Israeli musician named Yithak Klepter and the lyrics are by Itzik Weingerten. It was handed to me by Klepter who had to leave a show which I took over. It has become an iconic song of mine and has a musical Hebrew middle eastern flavor to it. When Tom Cohen of the Andalusit orchestra approached me he suggested arranging the song and including a classic melody of one of the greatest Arab composers of all times, Abdel Wahab. It has created a cool, unique, Israeli-middle eastern blend.”
