Music Quickens Time by Daniel Barenboim

An interesting book that goes as much into the author's vision re: the Israel/Palestine situation as it does music. I enjoyed it very much.

Music Quickens Time by Daniel Barenboim

Barenboim's insight and experience with music are brimming across each page. As an immigrant to Israel at age 9, he brings valuable perspective to the Israeli-Palestine hostilities.
