Moshe Lahav - "The Big Tish"

Moshe Lahav’s “The Big Tish”

With unmediated simplicity, somewhat rough and powerful singing, no affectation, and flowing, surprising medleys of songs not heard every day or in other places, Moshe Lahav presents a unique show: “The Big Tish” – Israeli songs and spirit. Without a presentation and without written words, eyes wander in every direction, and that is how the fellowship comes about…

Lahav, with his magnetic presence, indisputably commands all the words and melodies of Hebrew songs—songs from the mainstream and songs from the narrowest and most forgotten alleyways of Hebrew song. With a quiet, rare, and indecipherable stage charisma, Moshe Lahav and his show make you return to “The Big Tish” to check once again how an evening that began with two or three quiet songs turned into an exhilarating experience that got you on your feet until the small hours of the night and left you wanting another show.

The show: “The Big Tish – Israeli Songs and Spirit” is a one-man show that has become a uniquely Israeli phenomenon. Moshe Lahav’s “The Big Tish” turns every gathering into an unforgettable experience, breathing new and fresh spirit into communal Israeli singing. The fact is that everyone who experiences this beautiful singing becomes a captivated audience that returns again and again.

Moshe Lahav sings songs that remind the audience of the vision and longing for this land, and of their admiration and love for it.
