Music reviews of Chamber Music From Theresienstadt 1941-1945
Music Review: I'm a bit biased, but I was moved by it.
Rating: 4 Stars
I'm pretty biased; I've been studying chamber music from Theresienstadt for a year now. However, I would say that ANYONE ANYWHERE will enjoy Gideon Klein's String Trio. It is sincerely beautiful music that expresses a genuine passion for the Czech Republic. It reminded me of Smetana a lot. Some other stuff on this CD is quite atonal. My ears did not enjoy Ullmann's string quartet at all; I know it is all important music to listen to to learn about the holocaust, but I think Ullmann's opera "Der Kaiser" is much less atonally grating to the ears. Klein is a wonderful composer, and I enjoyed his atonal sonata on here much more than Ullmann's atonal string quartet. However, overall, I would say buy this cd for Klein's String Trio and YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY. I really think that Klein needs to be recognized for his personal genius as a composer, not simply for being a composer who died in the holocaust.
Description of Chamber Music From Theresienstadt 1941-1945
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 VernierGeneral CDs
