The West-Eastern Divan Orchestra is set to embark on an extraordinary spring tour, which marks a very special occasion: Daniel Barenboim has invited his longtime colleague and close personal friend Zubin Mehta to lead the orchestra on this concert tour to China and Europe. The orchestra is delighted that Maestro Mehta, as one of the world’s most distinguished conductors, has accepted the invitation to this extraordinary project.
We also welcome acclaimed German-Korean violinist Clara-Jumi Kang as the soloist, who has captivated audiences and critics worldwide for more than a decade and who first performed with Daniel Barenboim at the age of 12.
The tour program reflects the great classical and romantic tradition, featuring works by Weber, Sibelius and Tchaikovsky, as well as Beethoven and Schubert.
