Yiddish was the predominant language for songs created in Holocaust ghettos and concentration camps. However, persecuted Jews across Europe and the U.S. created songs expressed in the language of their country of origin; this patriotism proclaimed cultural dignity and defiance. Dr. Tamara Reps Freeman, a Holocaust musicologist and recitalist, brings these multi-lingual expressions to life by telling the stories of the composers, sharing their lyrics and playing their evocative music on her 1935 Joseph Bausch viola which was rescued from the Holocaust.
