Rephael Perkel’s music was able to open deep pathways to my soul. His songs are like teachings for the heart that help us see goodness within and outside ourselves.”

Avraham Dov Hershler , Writer (Vancouver, Canada)

“I’ve had the pleasure of being involved with Rephael‘s music both as an avid listener and a musician during live performances. Rephael has the unique ability to transform deeply spiritual concepts into musical journeys that not only reflect the meaning of the ideas but enable the listener to experience them and, thus, ultimately end up with a more profound understanding of and connection with those concepts. This is part of the journey that Rephael’s music imparts.

“The other part is the actual rhythmic aspect. As a drummer, I always appreciate musicians that feel the pulse of a composition as a fundamental part of the structure of a song. Rephael’s music inter-weaves varying time signatures with diverse genres seamlessly – all of which reflect the character of the message being imparted while creating a wonderful musical odyssey for the listener. Bottom line – this music is powerful, meaningful, easy to listen to and it grooves!”
