Her composition, a captivating dance for cello and orchestra, transports listeners to ethereal realms through its enchanting melodies. This extraordinary concerto, performed by Israeli-American cellist Inbal Segev, has garnered immense praise, with its opening movement amassing over 11 million plays on Spotify and earning a place among NPR Music's "Favorite Songs of 2020."
