The esteemed musician Yair Dalal celebrates his 70th birthday with the show “The Perfume Road” and other works and songs from his extensive musical career, in collaboration with beloved and special guests. About 30 years ago, Dalal embarked on a musical journey that crossed borders and cultures, inspired by the desert and the magical Perfume Road. The journey, which began on the coasts of India and the Persian Gulf and ended on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, shaped a unique style of ethnic music, blending Middle Eastern cultures with Indian influences, between East and West, between the ethnic and the modern. A performance of mesmerizing melodies, captivating rhythms, and delightful singing. Dalal believes that the Perfume Road can be transformed into a path of peace, a path of brotherhood between the peoples living in the region, because peace is the most precious commodity of all.
