Music in the Holocaust

Enlarge text Shrink text

Based partly on testimonies and archival material, including 17 original songbooks and 70 songs, discusses the role played by music in the lives of internees in the Warsaw and Vilna ghettos and in the Sachsenhausen and Auschwitz concentration camps. Views activities such as performances by orchestras and chamber groups, choirs, theaters, community sing-alongs, and cabarets as spiritual resistance.
