pop-rock-folk singer.Lavie was born to a single mother named Edith
Aubin. His father was a medical student from Riga. His mother married
a man named Frank Inselsbacher of the French Foreign Legion and he
gave him his surname. In 1936, accompanied by distant relatives, he
emigrated from Germany to Kfar Baruch in Mandatory Palestine at the
age of 9. His career began in 1945 in the Palmach military band. In
1947 he joined the "Carmel" band. His extensive stage career, spanning
decades, began in the 1950s. He acted in the Cameri Theater and sang
together with "The Three Strings", which specialized in shepherds'
songs. During his career he recorded hundreds of songs, appeared on
stage and played in musicals and films. He participated in many
theater plays, several movies (e.g. Hill 24 Doesn't Answer, Operation
Thunderbolt, Rocking Horse, Hole in the Moon), and published a number
of solo and non-solo albums (e.g. Le Arava Trio he:קו×'×¥:Arava
Trio.JPG). He was occasionally seen on primetime Israeli television in
the days it had only one channel.Lavie had a very rich voice that
allowed his band members to play simple musical roles and spend very
little time on rehearsals. Thus, Lavie could give many concerts in the
young state of Israel, when it had a small, poor population.
