Jewish writers, composers, and performers have made major contributions to the world of music. "Nobody does it better". Some of the Jewish names in this video may surprise you. It was shown for the first time at the recent Genesis 2016 awards ceremony in Israel.
Enjoy!

According to Wikipedia, "Joel's father, Howard (born Helmuth) Joel, a classical pianist, was born in Germany, to a Jewish family, the son of a merchant and manufacturer, Karl Amson Joel. Howard immigrated to Switzerland and later to the US (via Cuba, as immigration quotas for German Jews prevented direct immigration at the time) to escape the Nazi regime.[7] Joel's mother, Rosalind, was born in England to Jewish parents, Philip and Rebecca Nyman."
