Summer '96 > The Conductor: Daniel Barenboim Published Summer 1996 Living in the Music Daniel Barenboim, Conductor and Pianist Extraordinaire, Has Two Passions in Life: His Music and His Cigars by Mervyn Rothstein The object in his right hand is a Cuban Hoyo de Monterrey, not a conductor's baton, but Daniel Barenboim feels equally at home with either. Barenboim, music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and artistic director and general music director of the Deutsche Staatsoper in Berlin, smoked his first cigar when he was 14. "It's a funny story," the 53-year-old Barenboim says, pausing to take a puff from his Hoyo in his hotel suite on Manhattan's East Side. A virtuoso pianist as well as renowned conductor, Barenboim is in New York for a solo piano recital at Lincoln Center; when it is over, he will return to Chicago for a month with his orchestra, then bring it east for concerts at Carnegie Hall in New York and Symphony Hall in Boston. His is a life in music, a creative life that began at age five in his native Buenos Aires when his Russian-Jewish émigré parents provided him with his first piano lessons, and blossomed at age seven when he gave his first official concert. Music and a good cigar are Barenboim's two passions, and as the aromatic smoke from his Hoyo flows gently from his mouth, he begins his tale of how the two first intertwined.

FRINGE EVENTS Bach to school The Back Half Jessica Duchen Monday 18th April 2005 Dazzling when he sprang on to the world stage as a pianist, Daniel Barenboim has conquered the arenas of conducting and orchestral leadership. He is now turning his attention to enthusing children with the classics, discovers Jessica Duchen There are not many musicians who can conduct Mahler's Ninth at the Barbican one night and then return to the same hall a few weeks later to perform a piano recital of solo Bach. But in his various incarnations as pianist, conductor and cultural statesman, Daniel Barenboim has grown from child prodigy to an artist who takes a lead, and a stand, wherever he goes. "I think this is really one of the characteristics of our times," Barenboim remarks. "Postmodernism, if you want, means you can - and if you are a creative person you almost should - have multiple identities, based in other cultures. Paradoxically, only that way do you actually fortify each of these identities, because you are conscious of their differences." Under the intent gaze of his hooded eyes, his trademark cigar wreathing his face in smoke, Barenboim is a powerful presence. The essence of dealing with the demands of such a life, Barenboim feels, is focus. "This is one of the reasons I felt forced to leave the Chicago Symphony Orchestra; so many things were taking so much time that did not have anything much to do with the music." He says his priority now is to tackle what he sees as the root cause of the ongoing threat to classical music. "I really want to explore ideas for what to do about music education. Because I think we are reaching a situation where the very future of classical music and its relation to society will be put into question."

Consumer Reports Can great music transcend politics? Daniel Barenboim's futile odysseys to Ramallah and Valhalla For one day, according to The New York Times, music truly trumped politics. In story headlined " 'Moonlight' and Mendelssohn in the West Bank," Times correspondent Serge Schememann reported that an audience of 200 Palestinian Arab student "froze in delight" as world-famous conductor and pianist Daniel Barenboim played Beethoven's "Moonlight" Sonata. Barenboim had journeyed through Israeli roadblocks to visit the headquarters of the Palestinian Authority to do something more than play Beethoven on an out-of-tune piano. He was playing to more than the audience present at a Quaker-affiliated school. The numerous television cameras and reporters who accompanied him were there to document his appearance as a statement against Israel's policies. The naivete of the statement is almost touching. Does Barenboim really think a piano recital will break down the anti-Jewish hatred that is fed daily to the Palestinian students he charmed?

The occasion was a performance by the visiting Berlin Staatskapelle orchestra under the direction of Daniel Barenboim. www.daniel-barenboim.com/journal/wagner.htm Barenboim points out that Arturo Toscanini, the noted opponent of fascism who refused to perform at Bayreuth because of the Nazis, conducted the then Palestine Philharmonic Orchestra in performances of Wagner in the 1930s, without objection. It was only after the Kristallnacht pogrom in Germany in 1938 that the orchestra decided that it would not play Wagner because of his associations with the Hitler regime. The Argentine-born pianist and conductor is a major contemporary musical figure and an intellectual who has some interesting things to say about the relationship between music, history and society as a whole.
