Yossi Green height - How tall is Yossi Green?

Green resides in Sea Gate, New York, with his wife Brigitte and their children. In 2012 his home was damaged as a result of Hurricane Sandy; the family lost most of their clothing and other personal possessions to flooding. On the first anniversary of the storm, Green wrote a new song, "Hodu l'Hashem ki tov" (Give thanks to God, for He is good), which he performed at a community gala and Hachnosas Sefer Torah in Sea Gate.

In 2010 Green launched a new project called Yossi Green Vistory, which is short for Vintage Music History. He has produced three singles featuring Shabbat zemirot composed by Rabbi Dov Berish Halevi Horowitz, a composer of Hasidic music in pre-war Hungary.

He released his first solo album, The 8th Note, in 2008. The album was chosen by British Airways to feature as a world music selection from February 2011 through June 2011.

In 2002 Green called on some of the superstars with whom he has worked to appear with him at the Lincoln Center for a concert titled Yossi Green & Friends. The concert returned to the Lincoln Center in 2003 for a second sell-out performance, this time featuring appearances by Dudu Fisher, Yaakov Shwekey, Mendy Wald, Ohad Moskowitz, Shloime Simcha, and Dov Levine. In 2004 Green brought the show to Israel, where it was radio-broadcast live around the country.

In 2002 Green released his first collection of greatest hits, titled Shades of Green. His second collection of greatest hits, Shades of Green - Hipsh, was released in 2011. In 2012, he released Shades of Green III: Hartzig, featuring Shloime Daskal. In 2014, he released Shades of Green IV: Varmkeit, featuring Shragee Gestetner.

Among the highlights of his career was a 1995 outdoor concert at Yarkon Park in Tel Aviv, where Green (on piano) and Mordechai Ben David, Avraham Fried, and Dedi sang many of Green's hits before more than 150,000 attendees, the largest-ever outdoor concert in Israel. In 1996, the Prague Symphony Orchestra led by Eli Jaffe and featuring Avraham Fried recorded a double album, Cities Salute Jerusalem, featuring Green's music. That same year, the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Eli Jaffe, performed the same selections. In 1998 the Israeli Knesset commissioned Green to compose a piece marking the 50th anniversary of the Holocaust. His submission, "The Akeida", was performed in Warsaw by Dudu Fisher and the Warsaw Symphony Orchestra. In 2001, Green was commissioned to compose "Kaddish", which was performed in Budapest by the Budapest Philharmonic Orchestra at both the Jewish Festival and the Budapest Opera House.

While studying at the Manchester Yeshivah in 1973, Green began to write his own songs. During this time he heard Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly with His Song" playing from a passing car, and it inspired him to write his own version of soul music, "Kol Berama", which was featured on a Pirchei London album under the direction of Yigal Calek and became an international hit.

As of 2013 he had written more than 700 melodies in the genres of pop music, classical music, liturgical music, Hasidic music, and show tunes. His songs have appeared on more than 120 albums and CDs. His clients include the superstars of the Orthodox Jewish music world, such as Mordechai Ben David, Avraham Fried, Yaakov Shwekey, Lipa Schmeltzer, Shloime Gertner, Ohad, and Dedi.
