Ritz-Carlton DIFC is to host Steve Barnett, known as ‘The Silent Conductor’ for his first Middle East performance, to take place on March 30.
Without saying a word, Barnet has developed a non-verbal dramatic illustration of leadership, cooperation and teamwork, known as ‘Orchestrating Success’.
Lothar Quarz, commented: “We are constantly looking for unique and engaging experiences to offer our guests, and The Silent Conductor is a new addition to our offering for group and meetings guests, or those simply looking for a new inspiring approach to teamwork, leadership and learning, all of which are also central to The Ritz-Carlton’s own philosophy.”
The Silent Conductor, Steve Barnett said: “Central to my philosophy is the notion that actions speak louder than words, so through various forms of non-verbal communication I will inspire the audience of over 300 guests to sculpt a symphony and perform as one unified orchestra, illustrating the power of team unity.”
Without any rehearsal, each member of the audience plays a simple percussion instrument and the music is conducted by Steve using facial expressions and body language.

The audience reportedly “becomes an integral part of an interactive, musical encounter that crosses all barriers of language and culture, encouraging each member to play together via the power of collaboration”.
The Ritz-Carlton, DIFC will open the event to its guests and corporate clients, and a limited number of spaces are also available for the general public.
Following the event, The Silent Conductor will be available for bookings at the hotel.
Steve Barnett was born in South Africa and has conducted audiences in more than 50 countries across six continents with hundreds of thousands of ‘performers’ over the past 18 years.
He has appeared in venues ranging from Wembley Stadium and the Royal Albert Hall in London, to bush lodges in Africa.
