[Index] Daniel Barenboim - The Paradox of the Peacemaker By Norman Lebrecht / November 6, 2002 There is no bigger name or more complex paradox on the modern concert platform than the Argentine-born Israeli pianist-turned-conductor and peace campaigner, Daniel Barenboim. Publicly, Barenboim is a paragon of liberal enlightenment. He has brought together an orchestra of young Israelis and Palestinians in Weimar, beneath the shadow of the Buchenwald death camp, and bravely given recitals in the insurrectionist West Bank towns of Ramallah and Bir Zeit. He has just brought out in America a book of conversations with the New York-based Palestinian academic Edward Said, whom he describes as 'my most intimate friend'. In Jerusalem he declared that prime minister Ariel Sharon would be unwelcome at his concerts. The Israeli right clamoured for his arrest over curfew violations and hecklers in a restaurant called him 'traitor' (his wife, Elena, loyally pelted them with salad vegetables). But when the Madrid government awarded him Spanish citizenship last month, Barenboim insisted that he would continue to travel the world on his restrictive Israeli passport.
Extractions: Daniel Barenboim, the prodigiously talented conductor and pianist, led the Chicago Symphony in works inspired by Spain. Barenboim, who was born in Argentina and is now an Israeli citizen, is a musician with an internationalist's approach, equally at home playing Beethoven or tangos, conducting symphony orchestras or great opera companies. This year is one of many anniversaries for Barenboim, who became the music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in 1991. He was born in Buenos Aires in 1942, sixty years ago November 15, and studied piano with his parents. He made his debut at the age of seven and performed in Europe for the first time 50 years ago, playing in Rome and Vienna in 1952. In that same year, his family immigrated to Israel, where he continued his musical education. He later studied conducting, and appeared for the first time as a conductor in 1962. Although he is the music director of the Chicago Symphony as well as the Deutsche Staatsoper in Berlin, Barenboim continues a very active career as a pianist. This includes playing concertos while conducting, as well as performing chamber music and accompanying singers such as Cecilia Bartoli in recitals. In 1999, at Carnegie Hall, he pulled off the astonishing feat of conducting and playing the five
Cigar Aficionado | People Profile | Daniel Barenboim Living in the Music. daniel barenboim, Conductor and pianist Extraordinaire,Has Two Passions in Life His Music and His Cigars. by Mervyn Rothstein. http://www.cigaraficionado.com/Cigar/CA_Profiles/People_Profile/0,2540,36,00.htm
Extractions: by Mervyn Rothstein The object in his right hand is a Cuban Hoyo de Monterrey, not a conductor's baton, but Daniel Barenboim feels equally at home with either. Barenboim, music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and artistic director and general music director of the Deutsche Staatsoper in Berlin, smoked his first cigar when he was 14. "It's a funny story," the 53-year-old Barenboim says, pausing to take a puff from his Hoyo in his hotel suite on Manhattan's East Side. A virtuoso pianist as well as renowned conductor, Barenboim is in New York for a solo piano recital at Lincoln Center; when it is over, he will return to Chicago for a month with his orchestra, then bring it east for concerts at Carnegie Hall in New York and Symphony Hall in Boston. His is a life in music, a creative life that began at age five in his native Buenos Aires when his Russian-Jewish émigré parents provided him with his first piano lessons, and blossomed at age seven when he gave his first official concert. Music and a good cigar are Barenboim's two passions, and as the aromatic smoke from his Hoyo flows gently from his mouth, he begins his tale of how the two first intertwined.

Der Präsident des Staates Israel Moshe Katsav wird die beiden Musiker in einer Feierstunde in der Jerusalemer Knesseth am 9. Mai 2004 mit dem Preis auszeichnen. Die Auszeichnung ist mit $ 100.000 dotiert. "Der Cellist, Dirigent und Pianist Mstislav Rostropovich hat Millionen von Menschen auf der ganzen Welt Freude an der Musik vermittelt. Er ist ein lebendiges Beispiel für den positiven und transformierenden Impuls, den Musik auf die Menschen auf diesem geplagten und geschlagenen Planeten haben kann. (...) Er ist einer der expliziten Verteidiger von menschlicher und künstlerischer Freiheit. Als Musiker und als Weltbürger personifiziert Rostropovich den Triumph des künstlerischen Schaffens und der Menschlichkeit über die soziale Unterdrückung. Sein vollkommenes Engagement in der Musik sowie in der Gesellschaft macht ihn zu einem Urtypen des Bürger-Künstlers", befand die internationale Jury. "Der Pianist und Dirigent Daniel Barenboim ist eine Person mit tiefem musikalischem und humanitären Engagement. (...) Barenboim hat seine orchestrale Führungsposition mit ausgezeichneten Auftritten in den berühmtesten Opernhäusern der Welt vervollkommnet", so die Jury. "Seine kombinierte Karriere als Pianist und Dirigent hat Barenboim befähigt, die gesamte Musikwelt und die Welt im Ganzen zu bereichern. Seine Hingabe an Menschenrechte und Weltfrieden hat Menschen aller Nationen und Überzeugungen zusammengeführt. Er ist überzeugt davon, dass Menschen sich gegenseitig bedächtiger zuhören können mittels der künstlerischen Wirkung der Musik".

The occasion was a performance by the visiting Berlin Staatskapelle orchestra under the direction of Daniel Barenboim. www.daniel-barenboim.com/journal/wagner.htm Barenboim points out that Arturo Toscanini, the noted opponent of fascism who refused to perform at Bayreuth because of the Nazis, conducted the then Palestine Philharmonic Orchestra in performances of Wagner in the 1930s, without objection. It was only after the Kristallnacht pogrom in Germany in 1938 that the orchestra decided that it would not play Wagner because of his associations with the Hitler regime. The Argentine-born pianist and conductor is a major contemporary musical figure and an intellectual who has some interesting things to say about the relationship between music, history and society as a whole.

Extractions: aus dem Englischen (1. August 2001) Barenboim, der 58-jährige weltbekannte Pianist und Dirigent, ist heute sowohl Leiter des Chicago Symphony Orchestra als auch der Staatsoper Berlin. Zuvor hatte er das Orchestre de Paris und die Pariser Oper geleitet. Als langjähriger Gegner des Wagnerverbots hat er in der Vergangenheit mit musikalischen und politischen Kapazitäten über diese Frage gestritten. Erst vor kurzem gab das Israel-Festival in Jerusalem Pläne bekannt, im diesjährigen Veranstaltungsprogramm eine Aufführung des ersten Akts der Wagneroper "Die Walküre" unter der Leitung von Barenboim aufzunehmen. Als Proteste dagegen laut wurden, willigte Barenboim zögernd ein, das Programm zu ändern und anstelle von Wagner Schumanns Vierte Symphonie und Strawinskis "Sacre du printemps" zu spielen. Doch als Barenboim am 7. Juli für eine zweite Zugabe auf die Bühne trat, fragte er das Publikum, ob es gerne Wagner hören würde. "Trotz allem, was die Leitung des Israel-Festivals glaubt, gibt es Leute im Publikum, für die Wagner nicht unmittelbar Assoziationen zu den Nazis hervorruft," sagte Barenboim. "Ich respektiere all diejenigen, für welche diese Assoziationen bedrückend sind. Es ist wohl demokratisch, wenn ich Wagner als Zugabe für diejenigen spiele, die es gerne hören würden. Ich wende mich also an Sie mit der Frage, ob ich Wagner spielen kann."

Eklat Bei Preisverleihung An Daniel Barenboim Translate this page Der pianist und Dirigent daniel barenboim zitierte beim Empfang des Preises fürsein musikalisches Lebenswerk aus der Unabhängigkeitserklärung Israels. http://www.welt.de/data/2004/05/11/276242.html
Extractions: Freitag, 4. Juni 2004 Berlin, 23:23 Uhr Home Kultur Jerusalem - Per Gesetz ist in Israel die Verleihung des hoch dotierten Wolf-Preises ein feierliches Zeremoniell. Aber am Sonntagabend in Jerusalem geriet es zum Skandal. Der Pianist und Dirigent Daniel Barenboim zitierte beim Empfang des Preises für sein musikalisches Lebenswerk aus der Unabhängigkeitserklärung Israels. Dabei fragte er "mit tiefer Sorge", ob der Staat heute, trotz aller Errungenschaften, noch "die Kluft zwischen Idee und Realität" dieser Freiheitsgrundsätze unbeachtet lassen könne. Darauf stellte sich Kulturministerin Limor Livnat wider das Protokoll und vor das Mikrofon: "Ich bedauere es sehr, dass der Künstler diesen Rahmen zum Anlass eines Angriffs gegen Israel nutzt." Im Radio legte sie nach: "Ein großer Künstler, aber ein kleiner Mensch." Staatspräsident Mosche Kazav kritisierte anschließend ein weiteres Mal, dass Barenboim 2001 in Jerusalem die Musik des in Israel verpönten Komponisten und Antisemiten Richard Wagner gespielt habe. Schon im Vorfeld war es zu Protesten gegen die Verleihung des Preises an den weltberühmten Künstler gekommen. "Israels Nobel-Preis" jedoch wird von Staatsvertretern ausgehändigt, nicht aber verliehen. Der Parlamentsvorsitzende war der Zeremonie unter Protest fern geblieben, da er die Verleihung an Barenboim nicht verhindern konnte.
