The “Sounding Jerusalem” Festival of Chamber Music was founded in 2006 with the aim of fostering a cultural trialogue between European, Israeli and Palestinian artists and audience to a maximum according to the current social and political possibilities.
With 25 concerts and a rich educational programme for the youth all over the region of Jerusalem – from the Old City, West and East Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Abu Gosh, Jericho, En Karem to Nablus and many other places - the ultimate aim is to go beyond human borders, opening space for a vivant process of intercultural encounter and differentiation.

Concerts provide an open platform to communicate and meet with the people in and around Jerusalem.

"Whoever maintains that at certain moments there was a mystical atmosphere in the auditorium, cannot be accused of exaggeration. The confidence that Porat radiated, and the perfect cohesion in his presentation, are what brought about this feeling, and the natural reaction to these two attributes was amazement... there are very few concerts like this one..." (Haaretz, December 2006)
"Driven by a divine gift, Chen Halevi overcomes the most perilous technical obstacles. His rhythm reflects his splendor and his exceptional ingenuity. Chen Halevi is the celestial manna in the sterile sky of the clarinet world" (Berliner Zeitung)
