Sarah Gorby - Les Inoubliables Chants Du Ghetto (1976)

Tomorrow will be the Holocaust Memorial Day, dedicated to the remembrance of the victims of the Holocaust. The chosen date is the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz concentration camp by the Soviet Army in 1945.

This is an opportunity to show our respect for the survivors of Nazi persecution and mass murder, and to listen to what they can tell us about the best and the worst of human behaviour.

So here is Sarah Gorby with the album"Les Inoubliables Chants Du Ghetto". In choosing these twelve songs amongst hundreds of others, Sarah Gorby wished to immortalize the poets and musicians who died in the concentration camps during the Nazi dictatorship. She interprets these unforgettable songs of her people with a quivering exaltation; she follows the jagged rhythms of their bewailing and their lamentations. This record is an extraordinary document, rendered yet more intense by the orchestral arrangements of Jacques Lasry.
