Music in Theresienstadt Concert
Please note there is no Lecture today. Instead, a concert will take place at the Maison Française d’Oxford
The program focuses on Jewish composers from Theresienstadt. This camp had a remarkable artistic significance during the war period. It was ‘home’ to major composers, and an orchestra was created there.
The composers featured are Ilse Weber, Pavel Haas and Viktor Ullmann. Though not connected with the camps, Sergei Prokofiev last movement of his Piano Sonata No. 6, conveys the chaos and anguish of a world at war.
After the concert, please join us for refreshments and a chance to meet the performers, Adam Leites (oboe) and Gabriel Cassagnes (piano)
