"Rai Ise Pla":
Berry Sakharof and Dodo Tessa, the two giants of Israeli rock, signed last night (Saturday) the last show in their joint tour.
Just before the summer ends and the calendar replaces the humid August with the "autumn" September, the two went on the stage of the Amphi in Caesarea for an evening of electrifying guitars.
Both Sakharuf and Tessa brought to the limelight the sounds they grew up with, the former bringing his Turkish roots and the latter the sounds of the famous Iraqi family of musicians from which he came.
They managed to bring the styles they grew up on to an excellent fusion in the form of their joint album "Badel Shel Or", and now they reached the peak with a joint performance at the Holy Cup of the music world in Israel.
succeeded even when they put the guitars aside.

Just like in their album, last night's show was also opened by "Cartash".
The tempo slowly increased and the audience reacted accordingly: he got up on his feet after three songs, and gave up his seats - both front and back.
Sakharof jumped and danced on stage with the enthusiasm of a young guitarist, communicating with the audience close to the stage with looks and responding with huge smiles.
Tessa completes it and does not rest for a moment.
In the mesmerizing cover of Eric Einstein's "Fragile", the two put their electric guitars aside and went on to perform a string of acoustic songs.
They sat side by side on bar stools, when Tessa began to sing "Iza Yom".
The audience, who knew every word and every note, seemed to perform the song alone.
When he finished, Sakharoff continued with the great "Nothing is not for nothing".

The trams returned to the stage to perform "City of Refuge" by Ehud Banai, so the (relatively) calm part of the concert ended.
The audience was back on its feet to the sounds of the special performance, as a series of performances brought the spectators to dance in the aisles - and basically in every available piece of land.
The duo came up for an encore to perform a delightful oriental version of "Time of Numbers", after which they performed "Ya Ba Li" by the famous Lebanese singer Fairouz.
Naturally, the phenomenal evening at the ancient and impressive site was concluded with "At the end of a day", when Tessa ended his part with "Fug El Nachel".
Even the pleasant breeze coming from the sea was not able to cool the hot atmosphere in the amphitheater, which seemed to be built especially for such evenings.
Get the crowd dancing.
