Sorrowful Songs
Sad, but beautiful, music to accompany images of Auschwitz. I went to the concentration camp many years ago – makes you appreciate life, loved ones and simply being alive.
Alan
Gorecki Symphony No. 3 “Sorrowful Songs” – Lento e Largo
Soprano: Isabel Bayrakdaraian, Sinfonietta Cracovia, conducted by John Axelrod.
Taken from “HOLOCAUST – A Music Memorial Film from Auschwitz”. For the first time since its liberation, permission was granted for music to be
heard in Auschwitz and a number of leading musicians were brought there to
perform music for the film.
