Give & Ye Shall Receive

World-class violinist Hagai Shaham has performed solo with the English Chamber Orchestra, Orchestre Symphonique Francais, SWF Baden-Baden Symphony Orchestra and he was invited to play Carnegie Hall with Isaac Stern and Pinchas Zukerman.
He chooses to make his mark back home in Israel, though, by giving back. A story in today’s (Hebrew) Maariv says Shaham is very involved in bringing quality music instruction to children living in Israel’s “periphery areas”.
The initiative probably stems from Shaham’s childhood experience of traveling 3 hours to and from his periphery neighborhood to violin lessons.
Whatever the reason, goodonya.
