- Ofra Haza( Bat-Sheva Ofra Haza-Ashkenazi )【 3 albums 18 lyrics 】
- Bat-Sheva Ofra Haza-Ashkenazi (Hebrew: עפרה חזה; November 19, 1957 – February 23, 2000) was an Israeli singer, actress and Grammy Award-nominee recording artist, commonly known as 'The Israeli Madonna', or 'Madonna of the East'. Her voice has been described as a 'tender' mezzo-soprano.
Inspired by a love of her Yemenite Jewish and Hebrew culture, her music quickly spread to a wider Middle Eastern audience.[citation needed] As her career progressed, Haza was able to switch between traditional and more commercial singing styles without jeopardizing her credibility. Her music fused elements of Eastern and Western instrumentation, orchestration and dance-beat. She became successful in Europe and the Americas; during her singing career, she earned many platinum and gold discs.
