At age 16, he took acting classes at Beit Tzvi arts school.Īlthough at that point he was more interested in acting than in creating music, Hanoch was recruited by the Nahal army troupe when he turned 18, and wrote a few songs for the troupe while in the service. Songs from that time include Agadat Deshe (Grass Legend), Nisa LaYam (We'll Go To The Beach), Risim (Eyelashes) and Yom Acharon (Last Day). Along with another member of the Kibbutz, Meir Ariel, he wrote more songs, and joined the Kibbutz's band – HaMishmaron. By the age of 14, he had completed his first song – Laila (Night). As a child his musical talent was known in the kibbutz, and until he discovered Rock music, he listened to a wide variety of genres (from Classical, through Russian folk music, Gospel, and Blues).Īfter getting his first Jazz guitar when he was around 12 years old, Hanoch began composing his own songs. The Israeli film “Aviva Ahuvati” (Aviva My Love) directed by Shemi Zarhin will also be screened as part of this festival.Shalom Hanoch was born in Kibbutz Mishmarot.
