Meir Ben-Dror Releases Energetic Rosh Hashanah Song

The story · English

As the High Holidays approach, singer-songwriter Meir Ben-Dror is releasing an unconventional, high-energy song titled "The King in the Field." This track offers a departure from the typical somber ballads associated with Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, instead focusing on the uplifting moments of the holidays.

The song uses analogies from aviation and flight to describe the powerful spiritual preparations for the new year, symbolizing spiritual elevation. It also references holiday symbols through imagery of fields and nature. The lyrics explore the essence of prayer and the holiday's significance.

"The King in the Field" is accompanied by a striking lyric video created by Mati Shreki, which incorporates AI and animation to provide a unique visual dimension to the song. Ben-Dror, who has a history of successful singles and duets, aims to present a different perspective on the High Holidays with this upbeat release.

The music was composed and written by Meir Ben-Dror, with musical arrangement and production by Itamar Shaked. Adi Perez handled the mix and master, and the AI-integrated lyric video was created by Mati Shreki. The promotion is managed by Mendy Kornet.
