Jerusalem Day festivities, marking the 14th anniversary of the reunification of the city, began here Sunday night with a festive concert at the Sultan’s Pool, at the foot of Mt. Zion. Leonard Bernstein conducted the Israel Philharmonic, playing among other works, the first performance of a piece for flute composed by himself in honor of flutist Yadin Tennenbaum who was killed in the Yom Kippur War. About 50,000 pilgrims are expected to attend the other major festivities Monday.
