Azi Schwartz is my favorite cantor, and this was a brilliantly stirring performance! God bless Israel, the U.S. and the inextinguishable Israel-U.S. alliance.
I have had the honour to stand beside American and Israeli friends when these anthems were played in both the USA and in Israel. This performance brings tears to my eyes. 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
Thankyou for this video. I am an Australian and I love the Israel Anthem. It touches my soul immediately. I feel the peace and serenity through this Music. The young man singing certainly adds to it here. Thankyou. john (Australia)
@@shawnmichaelduncan5951 are you serious? Soviets did do quite a lot of the fighting. Across almost 10000 km they advanced. USA did help, yes, but it was also up to the brits to actually grant independence to Israel.
I am European and secular, so neither God nor any religion hold any importance to me. But this rendition of „the Hope“ is so brilliant, it is exactly the support our brethren in Jerusalem need! Thank you!
Dear Azi, when you sing, even a National Anthem of a country sounds like a prayer - which it ought to be! Great to see you collaborating with Zubin Mehta.
Tony Gutierrez oh really? You mean rest of the world is not struggling for peace. Or you want us and Israel to get credit for peace. Peace is matter of collective efforts of nations in particular region not a hegemony of 2 nations
Kshitij S when I hear our great national anthem it reminds me of a great sacrificed America has indured helping many nations to achieve PEACE. Jewish people had suffered during the 2 world war. I don't have to remind how they suffered.
I am not Jewish but I stand behind my Jewish brothers and sisters from Israel and all around the world. You guys are so among the most righteous nations in the world. Much happiness and peace to Israel. USA behind you all the way. GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS AND KEEP THEM SAFE GOD.
Robert Lind I am not Jewish and I agree with you, I love Jewish people and their rightful country which is Israël, with its capital Jérusalem. God bless Israël the Jewish land !!!
@romain reuter I was born and brought up in Birmingham UK, and I am a British citizen first and Indian heritage is after my British pride, but the stories of war and how Russia supported my ancestral home, I developed a bond towards Russia, being British, I love Australia more but when I switch to indian, Russia rules :) Anyways rule Britannia cool Britannia>>> than any country in the planet, I am sure we'll get this Johnson out next election, he's ruining the UK
A nation with an unprecedented history of being persecuted, tortured, hated, and murdered. Regardless of one’s politics, there is something so moving and beautiful in the never ending resilience.
There are many discussions about the origin of the israeli anthem. This is the truth. The words to this anthem were written in 1886 by N. Herz Imber, an English poet originaly from Bohemia (now Czech republic) and the melody was written by Samuel Cohen, an immigrant from Moldavia who actually based the melody on a musical theme found in "Vltava" a master piece composed by the world known Czech composer Bedrich Smetana.
Wow, he hit all the notes even. That's The Star Spangled Banner, naturally. Both beautiful anthems, both in their own way are about fortitude. The virtue of persistence in some good purpose, over time & in the face great difficulty. H'Tikva about a people clinging to the memory & love of their ancient home & land & how it has preserved the nation even w/o a state. The Star Spangled Banner about how the soldiers of that fort who stood their ground & preserved their nation & state against a long terrible night bombardment. They are about looking to some higher purpose to sustain your faith, symbolized in a land & in a flag.
Não esqueçamos que a comunidade Judaica dos EUA também carrega um coração brasileiro. Vinte e três judeus do Brasil navegaram em direção aos EUA nos anos 1600 e ajudaram a fundar MANHATTAN . GOD SAVE ISRAEL FOREVER.
I don't know..is it just me or other people as well,think that Hatikva is more 'touching' without singing-just let this FANTASTIC orchestra do 'it's thing'...
Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?🇺🇸🎼🎵🎶
Beautiful, as always. Sorry to say it through me off a bit to see the audience easily join in singing Hatikvah, but no one (on camera, anyway) joined in to sing the U. S. national anthem. As an American Jew, I am happy to sing both, when appropriate.
America's national anthem is about a battle. It's a good anthem, but Hatikvah is about something deeper and strikes me more at my core. America the beautiful is the same.
Interesting contrast between the two national anthems. The US anthem is glorious and bombastic; the Israeli anthem is filled with beauty and pathos.
As a Jewish American, I have goosebumps and (happy) tears hearing this...his voice is a gift from the Almighty. Am Yisrael Chai!

He is indeed!
Everytime I listen to Israel national anthem I get goosebumps bumbs.. so beautiful.. May God bless Israel and America..
USA & ISRAEL TOGETHER FOREVER!!!!

Two great national anthems. Thank you Azi from this United States Army veteran.
Notice the Israeli musicians all stood in respect for the Stars Spangled Banner--CLASS !!!!
Because without American help in WW2 there would be no Israel.
@@shawnmichaelduncan5951 are you serious? Soviets did do quite a lot of the fighting. Across almost 10000 km they advanced. USA did help, yes, but it was also up to the brits to actually grant independence to Israel.
@@joelthorstensson2772 Josef Stalin (USSR) was the first leader who gave Israel recordnision in the UN and than USA. דור דביל.
It’s common practice for professional orchestras to do that, regardless of which national anthem they play.
@@shawnmichaelduncan5951 There was no Israle period in WW2. The nation didn't exist until 1948. Learn history. Thanks

Orchestra and public standing, showing respect. That's the idea of making America great again. Wonderful, exceptional voice.

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
