Ofra Haza, daughter of Yemenite Jewish immigrants, recorded the songs of her parents' tradition, many set to poems by the seventeenth-century poet Shalom Shabazi, with arrangements that mix traditional percussion and modern orchestration. Released abroad it found an international audience, and its song Im Nin'alu, remixed a few years later, became a hit across Europe. A bridge between family memory and the wider world.
