Re: music in concentration camps (fwd)

As always I'd say check with YIVO. That and I know that the Workman's Circle has a couple of Holocaust songbooks, because I have one of them, entitled: WE'RE STILL HERE.

Also check with the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. You'd be surprised(or wouldn't)just how much info. they have via the Spielberg Project. If all else fails...try Spielberg.
