The Inextinguishable Symphony: A True Story of Music and Love in Nazi Germany
by Martin Goldsmith
Wow. What a story.
There`s an argument brought up in this book about whether or not this orchestra gave the Jewish people in Germany a beam of light during an unimaginable dark period in history or whether it allowed the Nazis to put blinders on them ultimately leading them into the fire. Which ever way you choose to look at it, if this orchestra had not been formed it would not have saved the 6 million people who were brutally killed during the Holocaust. However, beyond any doubt it provided the people with a bit of normalcy and a great deal of beauty. That is without a doubt the power of music.
Such a moving story intertwined within such an unbelievable event in history. A must read.
