Barzilai performs regularyl throughout Europe, Israel, and the US and has participated in various music festivals, both as a soloist and with the Jerusalem Great Synagogue Choir, which tours Europe every year. He also has recorded many CDs and was chosen to sing the prayer El Maleh Rachamim at the memorial service in Mauthausen in 2000.\nPianist Daniel Gildar who was born in Cleveland, Ohio, studied piano, theory, and voice at the Cleveland Institute of Music.
