Players from the World Orchestra for Peace 1995 - 2010The musicians who make up the World Orchestra for Peace are a selection of the finest players drawn from top international ensembles. At the inaugural UN concert in 1995, every single one of the players Solti invited accepted immediately. The players represented 45 orchestras, from 24 countries.
Although not all musicians have played in each concert, there is a core that remains the same, with new outstanding young professional players being invited through personal recommendation and who are known to share the orchestra's ideals. |
