The focus of the forum will be to find a way to remove these obstacles. Vladimir Feltsman is the living embodiment of an individual who must face these obstacles. An artist and a Jew. an international awardwinning pianist and a Soviet citizen. Vladimir has been a victim of the repressive Soviet system. le was a highly accla.med artist with the world at his feet until he applied for an exist visa to emigrate to Israel in 1979. Then it was as though Vladimir had never existed. His recordings are censored completely. he is not permitted to travel. and he is supposed to be ostracized by the performing arts community.
