Israeli musicians are told to reaudition for their jobs

Israeli musicians are told to reaudition for their jobs

There is uproar in the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra where three musicians have been fired and others have been ordered to reaudition.

Those dismissed are a flute player, clarinet and trumpet.

The orders of dismissal and reaudition by managing director Ofer Amsalem are couched in singularly brutal terms: ‘If you decide not to atend the audition, let us know as soon as possible so we can organize the procedure for your termination.’

The music director, under whose auspices this shakeout is taking place, is Julian Rachlin (pictured).
