Berit Engen WEFT and D'RASH – A Thousand Jewish Tapestries




THE SHOAH (I-III) 
– Songs in the Face of Death

          This three-part series is structured around the Yiddish songs of the Holocaust, many of which were written and composed by the victims during the war and as the atrocities unfolded. These songs, and others that fit their experiences, were sung in that most hopeless of times by people awaiting their fate. A few were sung afterward in the ruins, or later, in remembrance.
           If a sound from a war can linger, I think it must be through songs like these.
