"The Argentine is self-destructive, Argentina is a rich country, huge, enormously rich, but we all have a self-destructive character that does not allow us to move forward, which does not leave us progress. " Therefore, it is not a question of left or right, it is a matter of character. "
So Daniel Barenboim synthesized his vision of the news in Argentina during the interview that Luis Novaresio gave him for his LNE program, for America 24, during which the 75-year-old Argentine musician tackled a generous thematic range, which included the economic and social situation of our country.

It does not reach the disaster of 2001 and 2002, but we are not so far away " warns the pianist and director, who Wednesday the Columbus the kick off to a new edition of Barenboim Festival, leading the Staatskapelle in Berlin, with a brilliant interpretation of opera Tristan and Isolde by Richard Wagner
But Barenboim's look goes far beyond local issues, to badyze this global policy, which he inscribed in a "situation of deep disagreement." In this sense, he pointed to the presence of a "cheap nationalism", which he described as very different from patriotism.

The Israeli conflict Elo-Palestinian has also not been a recurring theme for Master. "The conflict is developing worse than bad, it is a conflict between two peoples who are deeply convinced to have the right to live on this little piece of land and, at best, without the other. this can only be solved with a certain humanism There is talk of a conflict between two states, where is the second ?, I wonder ".
The interview also highlighted the role of the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, which Barenboim created with the Palestinian philosopher Edward Said in 1999. "He thought that in the best case we would have an echo in the region. " Aging is not very pleasant, but all alternatives are worse . Aging is a privilege that is not granted to everyone. he said, and in keeping with his positive view of his life, he warned: "I have an obligation to make public an opinion on things that I think have the smell of injustice, that's the only thing I claim to have done for my life "
Throughout the 51 minutes of conversation with Luis Novaresio, Barenboim also defined himself as a spokesperson and stressed the need to reflect on oneself. "Many people think that thinking of themselves is something selfish." Who will think for one, but for oneself?
