Roving with the Arts "Hope Not Hate" Part 1

Roving with the Arts presents “Music of Hope, not Hate”. I begin a 25 part series of music written by imprisoned, mostly Jewish, musicians during WW 2 in Nazi prison camps between 1933 and 1945. These ill-fated musicians and composers, ensnared in the Holocaust, prevailed by performing and composing music of profound importance and beauty. Many of them were murdered but their music will live forever.
Join me the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month at 9:00 AM, to discover their music.
