A tribute to “The Women’s Orchestra of Auschwitz” tells the stories of the lives of four women through the evening’s concert programme. Journeying from pre-war Europe through the horrors of the war, recounting the many roles music played in their lives – resistance, survival, resilience, and a means to battle racism and fascism.
The stories of the lives of Alma Rosé (violinist and conductor) and others will be shared through this unique concert, and Clare Galambos Winter’s violin will be played.
The concert musicians are:
Amalia Hall, Violin
Martin Riseley, Violin

MC Donald Maurice, with narration by Inbal Megiddo and Sharn Maree Cassady.
Presented by The Holocaust Centre of New Zealand in partnership with the New Zealand School of Music—Te Kōkī, Victoria University of Wellington and supported by The Public Trust Hall and building owners Maurice and Kaye Clark, and the Adam Foundation, and Council of Jewish Women.
