The Last Musician of Auschwitz

Discover the story of cellist Anita Lasker-Wallfisch, who, alongside fellow prisoners, created music amidst the horrors of the Holocaust. Through her moving interview, plus performances by international musicians and the stories of other artists, the program reveals how, even in the most brutal circumstances, music served as a lifeline, a form of testimony and a powerful means of resistance.
