Four Track Preview from Nir Motzeri's 2014 Album, "To Make Her Happy"

"To Make Her Happy" Preview Tracks

I composed this niggun while riding alone on the train from  Dharamsala to Pushkar.  As the train rattled along with its broken beats I found myself searching the horizon for an olive tree, for a reminder of home.  I never found the olive tree, and so in its place I composed, "Longing Train."   

Written and Composed by Nir Motzeri.
Mixed by: Shahar Kaufman, OnyxStudio, Rosh Pina
Mastering: Yoram Vazan

Featuring:

Nir Motzeri - Bansuri Flutes, Mandolin, Oud, Viola, Celtic Whistles

Longing Train - רכבת געגועים

A cross-continental composition, named after Jog, a traditional Indian raga.  I started this niggun before traveling to India to study bansuri.  The tune was completed after my post-India trip to Canada, where I had been immersed in the celtic/quebec folk music scene.

Yanush Hurwitz - Accordion
Eyal Luman - Naal & Kanjira

Jog - ג׳וג

When my mother and father moved to our village, my grandmother, blessed be her memory, gave them a small date palm that she had grown herself from seed, for luck and happiness. My father planted it in our garden close to the house, where it has grown for the last 30 years. This melody was written in the shadow of that palm, the tree that reminds me of her.

Under The Date Tree - תחת עץ תמר

This niggun was written as part of my attempt to woo my wife.  She loved the bluegrass banjo but all I had on hand was a Greek Bouzouki.  I wrote this tune, To Make Her Happy, while sitting amongst her flowers on our balcony in Montreal, Canada 2006.

Lyrics:
(fly so high) 
(who would need, who would need to fly so high) 
(who would need, who would need to fly so high)

someday I'll find my way to your window 
someday I'll find my way to the scy

should I get lost on my way, I know 
that's where I should be 
that's where I should be

someday I'll find my way to the scy 
(fly so high) 
seems so dark outside I don't know where to go

should I get lost on my way, I know 
that's where I should be 
that's where I should be

and should I never come home 
remember me 
remember me

(who would need, who would need to fly so high) 
(fly so high)

זכרון האהבה (דכר אלמחיבה)- לירון עמרם והפנתרים

Nostalgia Dreams

Playing on a wide range of traditional and ethnic instruments, Nir Motzeri combines the rich multicultural reality of modern Israel with the ancient Jewish tradition of niggun.  A musical storyteller, Nir's compositions are fantastical worlds in which remote genres, rhythms and styles find themselves at home with one another and instruments converse like long lost friends.  The son of a Yemenite, born into an Israeli Sephardic family, with roots stretching from Spain, Italy and Morocco, fusion is Nir’s native musical language.  Traversing borders between East and West, the old world and the new, "To Make Her Happy" is a testament to the power of pure, wordless music to touch the heart and speak the langage of the soul.
