Tribute to Menachem Wiesenberg | Sep 7, 2026 | Jerusalem, Israel

A new concert series in partnership with the National Library in Jerusalem aims to bring themes from the library's collections to life through music. This program celebrates composer, pianist, arranger, and educator Menachem Wiesenberg, one of Israel’s most prominent and versatile musicians. Wiesenberg’s singular career spans the full range between original composition and the craft of arrangement. Like a skilled translator, he takes existing works and recreates them, listening to them with profound respect before unleashing his boundless imagination. The program will feature some of the composer’s original works alongside his arrangements of songs by Sasha Argov.
