Today an Orchestra, tomorrow a State: Healing, Unity & Resistance with Zeina Khoury (Edward Said National Conservatory of Music)

Step into the inspiring story of music, resilience, and hope with Zeina Khoury! In this moving episode of The Power of Music podcast, we welcome Zeina, orchestra manager at the Edward Said National Conservatory of Music in Palestine where she oversees the Palestine National Orchestra, the Palestine Youth Orchestra, the ESNCM Orchestra, and the Jerusalem Children’s Orchestra. For over a decade, she has worked tirelessly to nurture Palestinian orchestral life under the Conservatory’s powerful motto: “Today an orchestra, tomorrow a state.”

Zeina shares how music offers moments of serenity, healing, and unity for communities facing ongoing challenges in Gaza and beyond. From rehearsals that bring young musicians together, to concerts that transcend borders, her work highlights the transformative role of music in building resilience and identity.

Tune in to hear about the unique difficulties of touring internationally with the Palestine Youth Orchestra—from logistical barriers to the deep emotional weight of representing Palestine on the world stage. If you enjoy the episode, don’t forget to subscribe, share, and leave us a review!
