The Year 2025 in Review

As the year draws to a close, I would like to look back on some of our most memorable moments of 2025. It was a year of challenges, yet also a year rich in music, hope, connection, friendship, and meaningful exchange. Once again, 2025 has reminded us that even amid political uncertainty, war, and violence, we stand together to keep the dialogue through music alive. 

From the spring tour with Zubin Mehta and Clara-Jumi Kang in China and Europe, to summer concerts with Maestro Daniel Barenboim and Lang Lang. From chamber music with the Divan Ensemble in South America, to remembering Edward W. Said at the Barenboim-Said Akademie in Berlin. Thank you to everyone who joined us along the way on stage and behind the scenes!
