Lost Music of Auschwitz Resurrected for First Time in 80 Years

News summary

The documentary 'The Lost Music of Auschwitz' showcases the remarkable eight-year effort by British composer Leo Geyer to uncover and restore musical compositions created by inmates at the notorious concentration camp. This collection of music, nearly forgotten for 80 years, reflects the resilience and creativity of those who suffered unimaginable horrors during the Holocaust. The documentary, airing on Sky Arts, commemorates the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz's liberation and features performances of the restored pieces, which include works from various orchestras formed by prisoners. Geyer described the experience of finding these manuscripts as a 'musical detective work,' revealing the hidden artistry amidst the tragic history. The project not only aims to honor the memory of the victims but also to remind audiences of the power of music as a form of survival. The film will be accompanied by interviews with Holocaust survivors, adding a poignant layer to the presentation of the lost music.
