Please join us for a concert showcasing a private collection of violins, violas, and
cellos, all curated since the end of World War II. The provenances of these instruments
are not always clear, but they are symbols of Klezmer and other Jewish traditions.
All the instruments have a common denominator as symbols of hope and a way to say:
Remember me, remember us. Life is good, celebrate it for those who perished, for those
who survived. For all people.
