The eight violins played an important and moving role in the Holocaust and have been lovingly restored by Israeli Violin maker Amnon Weinstein. These violins are the very same instruments which the Nazis organized to be played in the death camps, concentration camps and ghettos, often companying inmates marching to their cruel deaths. The fragile wooden instruments have survived to tell the story of millions who were barbarically exterminated. They created the last sounds of sanity heard by the victims.
8 of those violins will be on display and one will be playing a medley of Jewish music. The programme will also include a film telling the story of the instruments and a Q&A session with the restorer, Mr Amnon Weinstein.
