Backstage at Berlin’s Pierre-Boulez Saal on Sunday, members of Les Vents Francais were waiting for kick-off when a clearly unwell maestro declared an interest.

Daniel Barenboim wanted to show which side he was on.

And came out in a Messi shirt.

Others on the bench are Emanuel Pahud, Eric LeSage, Francois Leleux ad Paul Meyer.
