The Ramallah concert

In August 2005, an unusual orchestra performed an extraordinary concert in the city of Ramallah.

The West-Eastern Divan orchestra was founded in 1999 by Israeli conductor, Daniel Barenboim and Palestinian literary critic and philosopher, Edward Said.

Their belief was that music has the power to bring people together.

Violinists, Tyme Khelefi and Daniel Cohen tell their stories to Gill Kearsley.
