West-Eastern Divan Orchestra
Daniel Barenboim
Conductor
The West-Eastern Divan Orchestra most recently performed at the Philharmonie Berlin in 2024 to celebrate its 25th anniversary—following a 20th-birthday appearance there five years earlier. Now Daniel Barenboim and the orchestra he co-founded with Edward W. Said return to the storied venue to open the first West-Eastern Divan Festival. The evening’s program will be announced later.
