The Orchester Jakobsplatz of Munich has a new name.

From next season it will be known as the Jewish Chamber Orchestra Munich.

Its leader Daniel Grossmann explains: ‘Our action is intended clearly, aggressively and with obvious ease to communicate our Jewish content.’

The ensemble, founded in 2005, is made up of Jewish and non-Jewish musicians.
