Description

Daniel Barenboim's eloquent exploration of music's role in our lives reveals that personal, social and political issues are intertwined. Through his experiences with Palestine, he demonstrates how music can transform and illuminate the world. Barenboim draws on his own performances and the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra to show the power of music to shed light on complex issues. This book offers a unique perspective on the way we live and the challenges we face. By examining the transformative potential of music, Barenboim argues for its central importance in our everyday lives.
