SYMBALOO. ENLACES DE INTERÉS

ALMA ROSÉ

IES Albalat is joining the events commemorating the International Holocaust Remembrance Day, a memorial day on 27 January, because on 27 January 1945, Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi concentration and death camp, was liberated by the Red Army.

A Music lesson will deal with Alma Rosé (3 November 1906 – 5 April 1944) who was an Austrian violinist of Jewish descent. Her uncle was the composer Gustav Mahler. She was deported by the Nazis to the concentration camp at Auschwitz-Birkenau. There, for 10 months, she conducted an orchestra of prisoners who played in order to stay alive. Rosé died in the concentration camp of a sudden illness.

We will watch and translate this documentary:

And we will listen to this performance:
