A Wave of the Baton
It is a youth orchestra composed of musicians from Israel, Palestine, Egypt and other Arab countries, including Iran.
The orchestra exists to promote understanding. The relationship between Israel and Barenboim has been strained for more than a decade.
Baton (conducting)
Barenboim was the first to conduct the music of Wagner in the state of Israel. Barenboim played Wagner as an encore in a concert after asking the audience if they wanted to hear Wagner. A minute debate ensued, and some patrons left the concert angry after calling Barenboim a fascist.
The majority of the audience stayed and gave Barenboim a standing ovation. Since that time Barenboim has been critical of the conservative Israeli government and has been supportive of the human rights of Palestinians and has advocated for the two-state solution.
Now he is taking a German orchestra to Iran to perform. Barenboim is undeterred but has postponed the date of the concert in question. Hasn't he heard of the penchant of the Iranians to take hostages?

How would he feel if he and his entire ensemble were taken hostage and held for, oh, a year-and-a-half? Does he really think that the Iranians are in a welcoming mood? I'd say the man shows some signs of mental instability for that alone. A Wave of the Baton By: Product Close-up This product is not available for expedited shipping.
