As reported today in the Israeli newspaper 'Yediot Akhronot', Sarit Hadat recorded her Eurovision entry yesterday.

In the arrangement of the song, 'Nadlik beyahad ner' (or 'Let's light a candle together') 15 string musicians of the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra are playing.

The premiere of the song is scheduled for Monday on Meny Pe'er's show. It is now confirmed that the song will also be included in the singer's upcoming album 'Love's child', that will be released
within three weeks.

Tzedi Tzarfati, who was the stage director of numerous past entries
and the stage director of the Eurovision Song Contest 1999 in Jerusalem, will direct the entry's stage performance in Tallinn. The prestigious choreographer Ohad Naharin has turned down the offer.

The video-clip will be directed by Lior Molho, who also designed Sarit's
previous clip to 'Kshe'Halev Boche' ('When the heart cries').
