Aurélie Lachish-Zalait
Aurélie played the violin for ten years as a school student in chambre students’ ensembles and in a youth orchestra. She acquired a PhD in chemistry from the Weizmann Institute of Science in 2005, and since 2010, she has worked at the Davidson Institute, the educational arm of the Weizmann Institute. In 2023, as her passion for music was rekindled, she swiped the dust off of her old violin case and joined the Weizmann Institute orchestra, in which she especially cherishes the friendly atmosphere and the diversity of its members, who all share the love for music.
Anna Akhlimanova
Anna began playing the violin at the age of seven. She graduated from the musical school in her native town in Russia.
Anna has a Master's degree in chemical technology, and she's working now at the pharmaceutical company MediWound.
Diana Muler
Diana inspires students to seek knowledge. Whenever she has a free moment, she dreams up musical ideas, tests them on her violin, and finally sets them down on paper.
Dan Segal
Dan started his musical journey during high school, initially with guitar. But soon afterwards, he fell in love with the sound of the violin and threw himself into learning the instrument. His college studies caused him to stop playing for a time, but after earning his BSc, he made sure to pick up his violin again—and this time, not put it down.
He also like going on short hikes, but only during winter and spring!
Dan joined the Weizmann Orchestra in 2025.
