About the event
With the aim of introducing a group of young European students and musicians (French, Austrian, Belgian, Portuguese) to the role of music in the Auschwitz concentration camps, this event is, as has already been done at many times in previous projects, one of the most ambitious and one of the best successes to wait for to support the testimony of memory. Through documentation and education, these young people from various parts of Europe will have tools to also transmit this particular and important memory of the atrocities of the Second World War and, more generally, of the dangers of totalitarian regimes. They will take part in workshops at the music school in Krakow and a guided tour of the museums of Auschwitz and Birkenau.
