Subject: RE: Holocaust/shoa songs. In memory.
BBC Radio Three played a lovely version of Ilse Weber's "Wiegala" (Lullaby) this morning on Essential Classics (about an hour in). Ilse was gassed along with her young son in Auschwitz. The version played was sung by Anne Sofie Von Otter to a very simple guitar accompaniment. Leave the programme running, as the next piece was Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus.
