There's a variety of styles to be found here; the upbeat 'Baruch Adonai' has an infectious Yiddish flavour; a couple of tracks are
bold anthems of spiritual victory - the latter one, along with the preceding prayer for Israel, carrying a flowing jazz rhythm. Many others though, are unhurried poem-songs which meditate on Jehovah's faithfulness to His chosen
people through the centuries, or which gently rejoice in the coming of the Messiah. Perhaps my favourite among these is the graceful celebration that constitutes the title track, co-composed with executive producer Yochanan Ben
Yehuda, on who's Galilee Of The Nations label this album - plus others from the likes of Barry & Batya Segal and Jonathan Settel - appears.
Saxophone, mandolin, lap steel and Maurice Sklar's violin all feature on Come Dance, as too does piano, flute and a variety of guitars. This all in keeping with a recording of high musical quality, on which is shared the pain, waiting and hope of spiritual searching, but
most of all, triumphant victory in one and only Messiah. Join with them as they lead you to worship at the feet of Yeshua. It's an experience of beauty, charm and joy.
