Ramzi Aburedwan

Ramzi Aburedwan is a musician and composer from Palestine. Aburedwan grew up in the Al Amari refugee camp (Ramallah, Palestine) and achieved notoriety when a picture of him throwing a stone at a demonstration during the first intifada became one of the defining images of the protest movement.

He also participated in the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra, a project founded by Israeli conductor Daniel Barenboim as a way to promote cultural interactions and understanding between Israeli's and Palestinians.
