Art and Music played a significant role aiding prisoners in the death camps of WW 2. It was therapeutic because great European composers were also prisons at the same time. They continued to compose and conduct for fellow prisoners under horrid conditions.
The ShabbaTones Chorus will sing recently discovered compositions which were written at that time. Even in one of the darkest chapters in history, music and the arts helped the prisoners spirit on having some hamanity in the horror.
