Among the several prominent composers incarcerated at Theresienstadt concentration camp during World War II were Gideon Klein and Viktor Ullmann. Although they died before war's end, the music they composed during their imprisonment helped them and their fellow prisoners to triumph over the prevailing horror. A few of their finest chamber works are represented here, in careful, sensitive performances. --David VernierCustomer Reviews:

Ullmann's opera has got to be one of the most terrifying and moving works in the history of the form. It was composed in 1943 in the Theresienstadt concentration camp, though never performed there. That the music survived at all is something of a miracle, as Ullmann himself was later taken to Auschwitz and gassed. The story is an allegory: the emperor (a thinly disguised parody of Hitler) decides to wage total war, and so offends Death by seeming to take over his job that Death goes on strike, and people everywhere stop dying. Death only agrees to go back to work when the emperor permits himself to be the first victim. Although only about three quarters of an hour long, the music makes a terrific impact, and this gutsy performance pulls no punches. --David Hurwitz
