The Young Philharmonic Orchestra Jerusalem Weimar was established in 2011 with a mission, to play music that was forbidden to be played, to revive forgotten masterpieces by Jewish composers, as well as other compositions that, being created under totalitarian regimes in persecution facing death, represent, each one in its own way, a larger issue: While culture and cultural values may not be enough to hold humanity together, it is always the ever-lasting task of the younger generation to rediscover those values and give them a renewed meaning.
