This book explores how music serves as a witness to history and a means of cultural memory in the post-Holocaust world. It argues that music has a unique ability to convey meaning from the past, often surpassing traditional forms of commemoration like books and monuments. The author examines the works of four significant composers, including Richard Strauss, to illustrate how their music reflects historical trauma and resilience. Through this analysis, the book highlights the profound impact of music on collective memory and its role in shaping cultural identity.
