The David Goldman Program for Outstanding Young Musicians:

The David Goldman program is designed to cultivate the gifted young musicians in Israel through playing in chamber ensembles that work throughout the year. In 2010, the Goldman family, with the help of the Jerusalem Foundation, decided to make a contribution that ensures the continuity and prosperity of the chamber music field for many years, to commemorate the father of the family, David Goldman.

The ensembles consist of string, wind instrument and piano players aged 11-18. Playing in the ensemble allows the young musicians an encounter with masterpieces and gives them a basis for musical deepening, listening, sensitivity to sound and teamwork. As part of the work, the young musicians meet prominent Israeli and international artists. To develop their performance skills, the students participate in many concerts in special concerts for the community on important stages in Israel, for students in elementary schools, nursing homes and hospitals.

As part of the program, about thirty outstanding chamber ensembles work throughout the country each year. The ensembles hold weekly rehearsals during the school year and participate in courses during the Hanukkah and summer vacations. The program is led by violinist Sergei Bressler, himself a graduate of the Jerusalem Music Center and a member of the Jerusalem Quartet, which was founded at the Music Centre as part of this program.

The Jerusalem Music Centre (JMC):

The JMC was founded in 1973 by legendary violinist Isaac Stern and Jerusalem Mayor Teddy Kollek, with the assistance of Yad Hanadiv (a Rothschild foundation) and the Jerusalem Foundation. The JMC’s purpose was to provide a musical center that would find and nurture the finest musical talents from all over Israel, and today, as a result of more than 40 years of work, many such talents can be heard performing on prominent concert stages across the world.

Today, headed by renowned pianist Murray Perahia, the JMC continues to imbue each successive generation of young Israeli musicians with the very same love, passion, and respect for their art shared by their predecessors, and indeed by great musicians throughout the centuries.

Our Purpose:

To find, nurture and promote outstanding young musicians from throughout Israel, providing them with uniquely tailored programs that hone their skills both as soloists, and as ensemble and orchestral players.

To support the musical and pedagogical development of instrumental teachers across the country, bringing them into contact with the world’s leading musicians and musical pedagogues.

To provide a musical center of global stature at the heart of Israel’s capital, enriching the city and its residents through its world-class concert series.

Our Vision:

Music has the ability to touch so uniquely and directly upon the very essence of human experience. To gain true, authentic mastery of its performance is a lifelong journey that, over and above innate ability, requires commitment, dedication, and humility.

The JMC seeks out those extraordinary young Israelis who wish to, and are capable of embarking upon this journey with us. Around such individuals, we create a musical community of peers and great masters that nurtures, supports and challenges them throughout their formative years and beyond; a community that is there again and again to encourage and remind these budding artists that there is always more to be understood, experienced, and communicated through the language of music.

Through this process of musical contact, these youngsters develop from promising talents into true musicians, who make artistic and interpretative choices knowingly and authentically, as part of an ongoing search for meaning and honest communication in music.
