Talk:Noa (singer)

message: In a sentence I retained from the previous version of the article when I expanded it, there's the mention of the singer as a percussionist "rhythmically drumming on her own chest." This recalled to me something I believe I'd heard -- but have yet to authenticate -- from back over a decade ago (early or mid-1990s?), possibly in an interview in Israel, that Achinoam Nini had studied scat-singing with vocalist Bobby McFerrin, probably in New York. This isn't mentioned in her official website, and I couldn't find any reference to it in a Google search. 
I'd appreciate assistance in verifying this, falling short of contacting A.N. herself. Personally, I'm notoriously reluctant to pester my culture heroes with prying questions -- figuring there may be some reason this point isn't mentioned, and I'm respectful where privacy is concerned.

thread_title:  Did Achinoam Nini study voice with Bobby McFerrin? 

message: I'm restoring the mention (that was recently deleted from this article) of the artist's New York upbringing and education, to which she herself refers widely in interviews and in her songs (cf. "Wildflower" on "Noa and the Solis String Quartet: Live in Israel 28 April 2005").
However, I've been unable to authenticate what I can recall having heard: that before leaving New York, she had attended the High School of the Performing Arts. It comes up in Google hits, but not on sites familiar to me. Thanks, Deborahjay 21:33, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

message: User:83.58.113.95 performed a series of edits amounting to an extensive rewrite of this article. In doing so, considerable factual content from previous edits was deleted, without any discussion I can find. The amount of rewriting makes it difficult to revert in order to retrieve what was deleted -- nevertheless, I feel the restoration is justified. Comments, please!  -- Deborahjay 22:29, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I also noticed this. I suggest you wait a day for them to explain and then revert to last good version. --Dweller 09:08, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Hello, all. I've added a few corrections and links to the text based on a personal interview with the artist, and receiving access to her personal archive. If there is any change that you believe is incorrect, please let me know. I've made an effort to include as many references as possible from her archive, but might have missed something. Best, Shani Evenstein. (talk) 19:53, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  A few corrections 

message: I haven't followed the changes to this article since August 2019. It is good, that the article is now named Noa (singer). But "Achinoam Noa" appearing now here and there in the article just does not sound right. I think, that's the result of replacing almost every occurrence Nini with Noa. I think all occurrences of "Achinoam Noa" should actually say "Achinoam Nini". --johayek (talk) 16:08, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for pointing that out, johayek. I'll go through the whole thing again. It should be either Noa or Achinoam Nini, but never the mix you pointed out to. I'll correct it. Best, Shani Evenstein. (talk) 16:22, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
