Reviews & Editorial
Daniel Barenboim established the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra with the late Palestinian writer Edward Said in order to bring together young musicians from across the political divide in the Middle East. Their hope was that music would heal and help to bring understanding and tolerance of different beliefs and cultures. This is the revised and final version of the documentary Knowledge is the Beginning plus the complete film of the historic concert given in Ramallah in 2005.
