Last weekend, child prodigy Uzziah Zadok was in Los Angeles with producer David Fedida, on tour.
The hostel where they stayed was in the home of the ultra-Orthodox tycoon Shlomo Yehuda Rechnitz. When the bitter news of the kidnapping of the boys Eyal Yifrach, Gil-Ad Shaer, and Naftali Frankel arrived, Rechnitz, wearing his second hat as a composer, sat down at the piano and, in tears, composed a moving song to the verse "Save Israel, save the remnant of Israel, and let Israel not perish, those who say, Hear Israel" - a song of prayer and hope in the Creator of the world.
""In such a moment of crisis," says Rechnitz, "I put aside all my business for a moment and turned to composing a song that would unite the entire Jewish people, that would serve as a bridge to the hearts of each and every one of us and strengthen the families in their difficult time. May the song become a song of thanksgiving after the boys' safe return home. As far as I am concerned, there is no one more suitable for this song than the boy Uzziah Tzadok, who also belongs to the National Religious community and lives in Samaria, and who is more capable of uniting hearts in such a difficult time.""
