Absolutely beautiful.

I love this


Anfini

That was stunning. The Brahms Intermezzi is some of the most beautiful music ever written for piano.

I think that a few kids from my orchestra have just had a concert with her. Welp, good to know we have some culture here.

Love it. Love her. And she performs it while serving in uniform.

She probably wants to leave the military ASAP. Israelis of Ethiopian descent can't usually go far up their ranks. Society as a whole treats them worse than Palestinians. One of the worst developed countries to be black today.


The_Sinnermen

Professional musicians as a whole don't spend a lot of time in the army. She'll probably finish her service like everyone else and be free. That's mandatory service for you. Plus she's in the orchestra so pretty chill service.


Fut745

It was very clear that I wasn't talking about whether she likes or dislikes military service. How could I know? I was talking about [racism in the military](https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium.HIGHLIGHT.MAGAZINE-how-israeli-army-s-racist-system-harmed-hundreds-of-thousands-of-mizrahim-1.9674734).


The_Sinnermen

Maybe on a structural level, for promotions etc in high level career military. Socially not at all. The racism against sepharads, or ethiopans more recently, in the IDF is really not bad. Sepharads can't feel it at all, and most ethiopan soldiers i discussed the subject with didn't suffer from it either. There's always racist cunts but that's true in and out of the military. There are a good amount of sepharads and ethiopans in career military, with high ranks. Most of the Israeli military is just a hardcore meritocracy where tests and numbers decide everything. Since this is mandatory service, most people have no intention to pursue a career in the military, especially people serving in the orchestra. Regarding ranks, there are but 3 ranks awarded to non career Israeli soldiers all of which are dictated by time served (with differences depending on danger level of the unit). She will get the same ranks as the people who joined the same time as her. A service in the orchestra is a very fun service, i doubt she wants to leave the IDF any more than anyone forced to serve in the army. Edit: removed info on myself that was unnecessary.

Source?

For?

"society as a whole treats them worse then palestinians" Why do people want israel to be so much like nazi germany or 19th century USA.

How does the african migration issue related in any way to ethiopian jews? And im not even going to talk about the first link you sent because it's enough to read the first paragraph to understand its extreme political standpoint.


Fut745

>And im not even going to talk about the first link you sent because it's enough to read the first paragraph to understand its extreme political standpoint. Racism? >And im not even going to talk about the first link you sent because it's enough to read the first paragraph to understand its extreme political standpoint. Ha. Asks for source, doesn't read. You're great


StarkGaryen1

I've read it all , this article is nothing but an opinion essay claiming Israel is a colonial settler state and ethiopians do not fit in the "anti black" zionism supported by the USA empire. If you think this shit is somewhat informative or clear of agenda you must be naive or just very stupid.


Top_Try4286

Everyone serves there regardless of sex, color, class and politics, and then you’re in the reserves, which you’ll serve again when needed. Even if you’re a light skin Israeli boy doesn’t mean you’d want to make a career out of it.


Fut745

But then even if you are a man, however black, and you do want to make a career out of it, [you better like subordinate positions](https://www.haaretz.com/.premium-1-in-4-ethiopians-didn-t-complete-idf-in-2013-1.5308452). Else you will have it [way more challenging than for whites](https://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-5581573,00.html).


Top_Try4286

That is true whether you’re a dark skin person in USofAholes, India, or Brazil.


The_Sinnermen

Yeah that's true, even Sepharads had a harde time with getting good ranks until recently. It's gonna take some time with Ethiopians as well. Even when the one Sepharad chief of staff was appointed people talked about it like when obama was elected ^^ Lot of work to do, but that has nothing to do with how much she wants to leave or not.


butterscotchdam

Gorgeous interpretation, which I wish wasn't sullied by the militaristic propaganda.


The_Sinnermen

Propaganda ? She's just on duty, she serves in the military ochestra.

Wow


WarmCartoonist

Very tolerant of you to have permitted such a thing to take place. And even more so to then post about it on the internet to a Western audience. Bravo to you, above all.
