Barenboim continues: “In the Divan, they ask why. And therefore it forces me to try to understand why I want something in a certain way. But they are the ones who make the sound. And the musicians also have to remember that they don’t just sit there and wait to be animated. The Divan does that like no other orchestra in the world.”
