West鈥揈astern Divan Orchestra
Daniel Barenboim (conductor)
In 1999, young Arab and Israeli musicians came together for the groundbreaking creative and social experiment that was the West鈥揈astern Divan Orchestra. A quarter of a century later, the ideals of listening, respect and mutual understanding enshrined in this ensemble are underlined like never before. For this timely Prom, the orchestra and its co-founder Daniel Barenboim bring with them Brahms鈥檚 consolatory Violin Concerto featuring soloist Anne-Sophie Mutter and the monolithic, momentum-fuelled symphony by Schubert that deservedly acquired the nickname 鈥楪reat鈥�.
