Young musicians from Israel and Germany, Weimar and Jerusalem, students of the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance and The Liszt School of Music Weimar, along with students from their associated high schools for highly talented young musicians, meet each other. They play together in one orchestra. They rehearse, give concerts,discuss and celebrate together.

The history that unites them and divides them, comes to life again in the viewpoint of the other. Weimar is both a location of the human spirit and also of the latter’s negation. From classicism to Bauhaus and Buchenwald, both the hopeful points of light and the tragic errors of European history become visible in one narrow space. Precisely here, a young generation that has experienced witness to history only in a mediated form may begin a new discussion and understanding of past and present. In a concrete and personal way. This happens with the help of music. For music makes human encounter possible. Music encourages attentive listening, intuitive understanding and thoughtful discussion. It creates community and makes, especially through the experience of concerts, human contact experienceable through its radical presentness.
