The Strings Division

Last year a new technological center was opened at the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance. It was established with the assistance of the Ted Arison Family Foundation, Wolf and Ruth Lesser, the Bracha Foundation and the Planning and Budgeting Committee.  The center, located in the the New Wing, is headed by Prof. Amnon Wolman.  It includes a sophisticated recording studio, a general computer laboratory, a computer and multimedia laboratory, as well as rooms for private work.
 

The  Weimar-Jerusalem Project is a unique German-Israeli collaboration. The orchestra, a joint undertaking of the Weimar and Jerusalem Academies, half of the players being Israeli and half of them German, is setting out on a concert tour that will begin in Germany and end in Israel. The program is a story in sound, dedicated to the history of Jewish composers in central Europe from the end of the 18^th century up to the Holocaust, the event that would sever the continuity of their involvement and contribution.
