ABOUT THE SCHOOL

The Buchmann–Mehta School of Music at Tel Aviv University was founded in 2004 to ensure the future of Israel's orchestras by preparing a new generation of exceptional young musicians — orchestral performers, conductors and others — for professional careers.

Since the school's creation, more than 50 students have performed with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, and 40 of the world's leading musicians have visited the school to give master classes. Students have won dozens of prizes in prestigious international competitions, and the orchestra performs in some of the world's most distinguished venues, including the United Nations, the Auditorio Nacional de Musica in Madrid, the Tonhalle in Zurich, and the Konzerthaus in Berlin, to glowing reviews.
