Where do you currently sing / play an instrument other than in Mikolot: I am a freelance Ba'al Koreih (reader of the Torah) and freelance Cantor for Jewish communities around the world. I am going to be studying a BMus at the University of Cape Town. Where did you attend school: Sha'arei Torah Primary School then Yeshiva College, Johannesburg. I studied a Bcom Marketing at RAU (University of Johannesburg) and my Honours in Branding at Vega School of Branding. What was your most memorable musical experience? I have two memorable experiences of equal importance. In no particular order, the first is when I davened Shacharit at Sandton Shul on the same Shabbat that the Chief Rabbi Lau of Israel and Chazzan Helfgot were in Shul. The second was when I sang A cappella solo at a wedding in Plettenberg Bay in front of 300 people. Tell us a little about yourself... Only 30 words? Come on! OK, I'll try... how many am I on now?! I have lived in the same house in Johannesburg my whole life and am moving to Cape Town in August 2010. I want to experience a different lifestyle still within South Africa. I work for myself as a Brand Architect. I have a company called IDEONICS. I love branding and marketing and I am an Apple fanatic! I own many an iPod, Macbook and of course the new iPhone (when it comes out!). I also conceptualised and designed this website. I love what I do in life!

Where do you currently sing / play an instrument other than in Mikolot: I freelance on flute and vocals with different bands and ensembles, playing mostly Jewish/ethnic music. I also sing with the contemporary funk band "B-Traq". Where did you attend school: B.A.Musicology from Bar Ilan University, Israel. What was your most memorable musical experience? Asha's concert in Newtown, Africa Day, 2009. Her effortless stage presence and simply awesome music were very inspiring to me! Tell us a little about yourself... I grew up in Israel, trained in classical flute, married and moved to SA. In SA I teach flute, and enjoy collaborating with different South African music ensembles, allowing my own creativity to soak up some of the African vibe. The Joburg Jewish community has embraced my music and myself very warmly, and for this I'm grateful. And of course, I adore Mikolot!!!
