German musicians take their experience to Ramallah ..... Several members of the Deutsches Symphonie Orchester Berlin are in the Palestinian West Bank to share both their knowledge and the stage with young scholars of classical music.
Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin
Every now and then, a little squeak slips out, but the three young Palestinian clarinet players don't let it get to them. They start over and again until they have the piece pitch perfect. It's part of the workshop atmosphere at the Barenboim-Said Foundation's music academy in the center of Ramallah.
Martin Koegel, oboist with the German chamber ensemble Polyphonia -- a subgroup of the Deutsche Symphonie Orchester Berlin -- is more than happy with the students at the Palestinian music school. He and his fellow musicians have come to offer some additional training.
"For us, it's about meeting the kids where they are. We have young people here who began playing just a year ago and others that have five years experience," Koegel told Deutsche Welle. "With the more experienced players, we work on pieces together in small ensembles that we'll present in concert. And with the beginners, we are trying lay a foundation to help them play together and learn what's important in the process." ........ M O R E:

The more accomplished musicians will play on stage alongside their tutors from Germany. But even for those at the beginning of their musical training, the concerts are an invaluable way of gaining valuable experience.
