The Voices: A Library Lecture Series committee is pleased to present “The Music of the Oppressed and the Oppressor During the Nazi Holocaust” by Dr. Roselle Chartock on Tuesday, April 19 at 1 p.m. in the BTC Auditorium.
Music played powerful roles during the Nazi Holocaust. For the Nazis, music served to enhance their anti-Semitic propaganda and extreme nationalism. In contrast, for the Jews, music was a form of passive protest that gave them hope and strength.
In honor of Yom Hashoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, Dr. Roselle Chartock, noted educator and distinguished local scholar, will discuss these opposing experiences of music.
