00:30Welcome to Mediane TV, dear viewers, these are the first notes of the Syrian symphonic orchestra

00:46that have echoed in the walls of the opera house in Damascus.

00:49At the opening, a minute of silence for the victims of a devastating civil war that has

00:54caused more than half a million deaths since 2011, projected on a screen behind the orchestra

01:00gathering twenty musicians, string instruments, percussion and brass, images of the lines

01:06illustrating the ravages of the conflict, Syria wants freedom, can we read it on an image,

01:11graffiti on a wall, another shows buildings in ruins or massive demonstrations

01:17adorning the flag of the revolution with three red stars, or a photo of Alain Kourdi,

01:23a Syrian boy in a red t-shirt, drowned at sea, and I became a tragic symbol of the refugee crisis in 2015.

01:32I invite you to listen to this Syrian woman.

01:34This place is very dear to me, it is one of my favorite places in Damascus.

01:40This place is very dear to me, it is one of my favorite places, what we see here today is the Syria that I love,

01:46the music, the people who came to listen, it is the best image we can have of Damascus.

01:51I am very optimistic and I will always support my country.

01:54I am optimistic and I think that better days are to come.

01:58Everything leads to believing that what will happen will be better for the people,

02:02we will have Syria, which is what we want.

02:04It will be more comfortable for the people, for the people, and Syria will be as we love it.

02:11The Syrian National Symphony Orchestra has been formed for the first time since the regime's downfall,

02:17entitled For the Martyrs and for the Glory of Syria at the Opera of Damascus on January 30, 2025,

02:23and with several diplomats and ambassadors.

02:26The program of this evening, led by the Syrian-of-Armenian-origin Misak Barbu Daryan,

02:37Beethoven's Symphony No. 5, Tchaikovsky's Adagio,

02:44and an excerpt from the 19th century masterpiece of the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg,

02:52alongside Arab, Gulf and European diplomats,

02:55Minister of Health and Brotherhood of the President-in-Office Ahmad Al-Sharif,

03:00who came as a family.

03:02Let's listen to Rama Al-Barsha, the violinist.

03:06Playing music is my specialty, it is my passion and my message in this life.

03:13Music brings peace and spreads hope and culture.

03:16I am here today because our message is music.

03:20We want to spread consciousness, peace and culture through music.

03:25Music is always a safety net for all.

03:28These are not fears, rather worries.

03:31We hope for more support.

03:33Under the old regime, we did not receive financial aid or symbolic support.

03:39We were there just for the show, we were just present in society,

03:44and a source of pride for them.

03:46But in reality, it was completely the opposite.

03:51In the ground floor, some spectators are moved to tears,

03:55others take out their cell phones to immortalize the evening,

03:58illustrating the difficulties of daily life in a country with a laminated economy.

04:04There is no heating, no means to buy fuel.

04:07Musicians and technicians have agreed to participate in the performance without being paid.

04:14Since the fall of President Bashar al-Assad on 8 December,

04:17rehearsals and concerts have ceased in a country in the midst of a delicate transition.

04:22If a wind of freedom blows, the historically more liberal capital is no less worried

04:28about the new, more conservative leaders,

04:31especially on individual freedoms and artistic expression.

04:35Let's listen to these statements.

04:39We were afraid for the future of the arts, of the impact of the political transition,

04:42but it seems that nothing will change.

04:44It is a very beautiful cultural event and it is the first time that I visit the opera house in Damascus.

04:49I was amazed.

04:50We hope that these evenings will continue. I want to come back.

05:00Syrian culture is imbued with pluralism.

05:02Tonight, our goal is to pay tribute to this musical work

05:06and to say, we are here and we are able to produce art.

05:13Thank you dear viewers for your loyalty.

05:16The information continues on our different channels,

05:19Mediantv Arabic, Mediantv Africa, Mediantv Maghreb

05:22and of course on our digital media, medianews.com.
