    Abstract: The project of introducing an unknown repertory into discourses on music can be approached in a range of ways. The writer can make a case about its regrettable neglect and its unjustified exclusion from a historical canon, or can argue for its (political) relevance to the present. Or s/he can simply try to persuade readers of its aesthetic qualities: this third desire might well drive the first two, however covertly. The path I take here is unabashedly more ambitious. In attempting to open the hearts and minds of the uninitiated reader to a composer little-known outside Switzerland and Hungary, I will suggest that he offers us a significantly new way of thinking about music history in the 20th century as a whole.

    Abstract: Tony Kushner's play Angels in America is now secure in the canon of 20th-century US (and probably world) drama, but its subject-matter has not often been explored in the opera house. The play centres around questions about racial identity, connubial relationships and politics (that's all very operatic, of course); but also a type of intolerance and spiritualism that is peculiar to parts of the USA; and, most dramatically and provocatively, homosexual partnerships and AIDS. Aside from the historical examples provided by certain operas by Benjamin Britten (among others), the only operas on gay themes known to this writer are Matthias Pintscher's Thomas Chatterton (1994–97), Stewart Wallace's Harvey Milk (premièred 1995), Paula M. Kimper's Patient and Sarah (premièred 1998) and Estele Pizer's Perverse (premièred 2002) – and none addresses AIDS. So Péter Eötvös's new opera, to a libretto by Mari Mezei, directed by Philippe Calvario and premiered under the composer's baton on 29 November, seems nothing if not an intervention.

    Abstract: The West–Eastern Divan Orchestra – founded in 1999 by Daniel Barenboim with the support of Edward W. Said in response to the Israel–Palestine conflict – brings together young Arabs, Jews and Spaniards for a workshop and concert tour every year. It displays a tension between repertoire (exclusively the Western classical tradition) and marketing (as an expression of inter-cultural dialogue). Drawing on fieldwork from 2006, the article analyses this tension as it evolves for players who shift repeatedly between the demands of Western orchestral playing and political discussion. It exposes the way the hierarchy of musical roles and the discourse elaborated around them create an environment that erases the political identities of players; and discusses the ways in which this environment is punctured at certain moments by a discursive or practical intervention, causing political allegiances to rise back to the surface explosively (only to be subsumed once again into music). Although the orchestra is set up to oppose the violence of war in the Middle East, it can be seen to contain its own disconcertingly coercive regime, one emerging from its hierarchical constitution with Barenboim as omnipotent leader, the professional ambitions of players, and the power that music can have in confounding the conceptual sphere.
