Daniel Barenboim, born in 1942 in Buenos Aires, is an acclaimed Israeli pianist and conductor known for his interpretations of Mozart and Beethoven and for using music to promote peace in the Middle East. A child prodigy, he debuted as a pianist at age seven and later performed with top orchestras across Europe and the U.S. Barenboim began conducting in 1962 and led major ensembles including the Orchestre de Paris, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (1991–2006), and the Berlin State Opera. He co-founded the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra in 1999 with Edward Said to foster dialogue between Arabs and Israelis through music.
