×�ַהֲבָה, (Ahava, Hebrew for Love), is a beautiful original composition by David McKeown, arranged as a duet for two Cellos, and is one of series of pieces celebrating Love in different languages around the world.

This duet is inspired by the slow formal dances used in traditional Jewish weddings in Israel and elsewhere. Klezmer music originated in Eastern Europe but has since spread around the world, its bitter sweet melodies and instruments imitating the human voice perfectly reflecting the complex emotion of love.

If you play to an intermediate standard and upwards, then you and your audience will enjoy this piece. The melody is always expressive and following the articulation in the score will help convey the style. ×�ַהֲבָה has a performance time of around three and a half minutes.
