- Summary
- When Adolf Hitler created the model camp at Theresienstadt for the better-known of Europe's Jewish transportees, he gathered together many of the continent's finest musicians. This book examines the associations, compositions, performances (opera, orchestras, chamber music, recitals) and above all, the people in Terezín. The Protectorate or Terezin Ghetto was not as bad as the concentration camps and it held Czech Jews and the best musicians of the times. After 3 1/2 years, in the fall of 1944, 1,000 Jews were transported from Terezin to Auschwitz to the gas chamber.
