Orchestral Jethro Tull in Israel 2006


This was my very first tour with the orchestral Jethro Tull. Ian and I met through a mutual friend, and we had a lengthy cyber correspondence. He was very brave to hire me without ever seeing me (or hearing me) in person. I was thrilled to meet him in person, and amazed by how much we had in common. He likes hot peppers and little black cats just as much as I do. I met the rest of the band in London for rehearsals, and they put me at ease right away. After one day of rehearsing with the band, we flew to Israel and rehearsed with the Ra’anana Symphony. Our lovely promotor also took the band on a tour of Israel and treated us to traditional Israeli cuisine. There was so much to see and do, that I desperately want to return to Israel when I have more time.
