Meron is a tiny town situated on a mountain, near the city of Tzfat, in Galilee, (northern Israel/Palestine), hosting the tombs of some of the most famous rabbinic figures as Hillel, Shammai, and Shimon Bar Yochai.
Every year, on Lag B'Omer - the 33rd day of the counting of the Omer - about a million Jews, from ultra-orthodox to secular, meet to celebrate one of the biggest parties in Israel with singing, dancing, and bonfire. More info: en.wikipedia.o...
The celebrations are accompanied by Meron nigunim, a repertoire of instrumental dances, created by amateur Yiddish and Arabic-speaking Hasidic musicians during the nineteenth and earlier twentieth centuries. The melodies are usually accompanied by Arabic rhythms and percussions. Source: Feldman, Zev. "Klezmer, Music, History & Memories" New York, NY: Oxford University Press, 2016. Pg. 389.
