She documents a wide scope of musical activities, ranging from orchestras and chamber groups to choirs, theatres, communal sing-songs, and cabarets, in some of the most important internment centres in Nazi-occupied Europe, including Auschwitz and the Warsaw and Vilna ghettos. Gilbert is also concerned with exploring the ways in which music--particularly the many songs that were preserved--contribute to our broader understanding of the Holocaust and the experiences of its victims. \u003cem\u003eMusic in the Holocaust\u003c\/em\u003e is, at its core, a social history, taking as its focus the lives of individuals and communities imprisoned under Nazism. Music opens a unique window on to the internal world of those communities, offering insight into how they understood, interpreted, and responded to their experiences at the time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clarendon Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47892118438039,"sku":"9780199277971","price":15859.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780199277971.webp?v=1781185791","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/music-in-the-holocaust-confronting-life-in-the-nazi-ghettos-and-camps-9780199277971","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
