Musician Israel Shtern – Trump
Israel Shtern, a musician in his heart and soul as well as a music teacher, never imagined he would encounter names like a didgeridoo, zanko, and other strange names for instruments, and he definitely never dreamed he would play them ever, but Hashgacha made things happen a different way. Israel gives courses and lectures all over Israel and even runs an impressive blog called Meida Musically, where he shares different thoughts and ideas on things that are relevant to music with some of the best musicians in the business, and while writing one essay on the history of the didgeridoo, he got himself to all of the other types of interesting instruments as well. Shtern says that there’s something very special about these unusual instruments that you don’t find with the usual instruments that we know and he used them to create an instrumental piece he calls the “Trump“.
Its a short and interesting piece in which he portrays his desire to see the Leviim play their instruments and have the Beis Hamikdash back. He calls it the Trump in honor of the fact that Trump released Shalom Mordechai Rubashkin from jail recently.
