Event
Amnon's Journey
For over a decade, Israeli master violin maker Amnon Weinstein located and lovingly brought back to life violins that had been played by Europes Jews during the Shoah. In this moving documentary, featuring soul-stirring performances by Maestro Shlomo Mintz, Amnon leads us from his Tel Aviv workshop and through Europe in search of these remnants of a lost cultural world. This journey, which included Vilna--his fathers birthplace--ends with a concert in Jerusalems Old City. This dramatic and moving musical evening took place in front of the ancient walls, where sixteen of the restored violins were played by international virtuosos in celebration of Israel's 60th anniversary. These Violins of Hope were joined by the Philharmonic Orchestra of Istanbul, Turkey and the Symphonette Orchestra of Ra'anana, Israel.
