The Revolution Orchestra presents a unique symphonic interpretation of the songs and sketches of Hagashash Hahiver, the legendary trio whose work has become an inalienable part of Israeli culture and language, the fruit of decades of stage and screen creations. The performance features video excerpts of Shaike, Gavri, and Poli, their beloved characters, distinctive humor, and musical gems — from Concert for Each of the Gashashim, through Small Sign:im and Cinema Gashash, to Cantata for David.
Launched in The Revolution Series in 2021, the show, our second Re:Play Israeli Culture Giants’ show (after The Roosters: Remix), has since been performed dozens of times across Israel, broadcast on EL AL flights, and ihad more than 50,000 viewers on the orchestra’s YouTube channel since October 2023
