Singing for survival

Analyzes the song repertoire created and performed in the Lodz ghetto: street songs, domestic songs, theater songs, youth organization songs, and songs of the workplace. Examines, also, their present-day context as symbolic referents to the survivors, as well as the repertoire of contemporary Holocaust commemoration ceremonies. Gives an account of the rise and fall of the Lodz ghetto, and biographical information on the persons interviewed for this study.
