Berlin’s Jewish Museum was dedicated with addresses by German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder and President Johannes Rau, a performance of Mahler’s Seventh Symphony conducted by Daniel Barenboim and a gala dinner. With 3,900 objects, the museum will paint a picture of 2,000 years of Jewish life in Germany — religious and secular life, business and arts, politics and social relations.
