Noam Sheriff's "Mechaye Hametim," released on January 1, 1990, under the Imp. label, is a profound and evocative musical journey that spans 52 minutes. This album is a powerful exploration of Jewish history and resilience, divided into four poignant movements: "Jewish Life in the Diaspora (Until the Holocaust)," "The Holocaust," "Kaddish and Yiskor," and "Revival and Renaissance." Sheriff's composition masterfully weaves together the sorrow, remembrance, and hope intrinsic to these historical periods. Each track is a testament to the composer's ability to convey deep emotional narratives through music, making "Mechaye Hametim" a significant work in Sheriff's discography and a poignant addition to any music collection.
