Singer Tziona Zilbershtein lives in northern Israel. She devotes her recordings specifically for women as a religious Jew. Tziona has a lovely voice and a lot of talent. She’s trained in music and dance in the United States, from classical ballet to Indonesian traditional dance, to Tai Chi. She’s also a multi-instrumentalist and composer. Tziona originally performed in the improvisitory jazz style but has since moved into accessible religious songs based on liturgical and biblical texts. Among her CDs is the newHanayni, preceded by Miriam’s Drum, a superb recording of spiritual song and dance. Her focus on rhythms is evident in earlier recordings such as the CD Aleynu. Tziona’s music is availble through her website:
