The Sound of Silent Voices CD
Donation protected
The Sound of Silent Voices is a project designed to use the voices of contemporary children to recreate the voices of children silenced at the hands of the Nazis.
In the project, young composers have created string quartets and trios based on poetry written by children during the Holocaust.
To date, the program includes composers from Toronto, Waterloo, Philadelphia, and Cleveland. Compositions for this concert are performed by the Ton Beau String Quartet.
After two succesfull concerts, we are eager to expand beyond our local audiences. To achieve this goal, we are excited to produce an audio recording of both the poetry and the musical compositions. This CD will allow a far greater audience to appreciate the work of these young composers, and will also be utilized as an educational tool for Holocaust and music educators.
