The annual tour of the United States by the Israel Philharmonic is taking place under unusually high security after pro-Palestinian groups threatened to disrupt the concerts.
The tour began on Sunday in Miami, and yesterday reached New York, where the the pro-Palestinian group Adalah New York staged a protest outside Carnegie Hall.
A spokesperson for the orchestra said "Despite the alerts, the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra will not give up a single concert. The US tour has turned into a tradition, and we don't have any intentions of folding in the face of threats. All the concerts have been sold out for five months, and we will not disappoint the audience."
