Abstract

This paper deals about culture and resilience of Jewish people, through the use of songs composed and or
sang during the Holocaust. Thanks to survivors’memories and the archives from concentration camps escaped from destruction by Nazi or even miraculously preserved in the ruins, it made possible to present a rich yet less known historic-musical repertoire to present day. With the support of typical musical ensemble and original arrangements, it’s shown through lectures and musical performances, all the inner characteristics of these astonishing simple songs and its inter relationships in other people’s cultures.
