{"product_id":"music-in-the-holocaust","title":"Music in the Holocaust","description":"In Music in the Holocaust Shirli Gilbert provides the first large-scale, critical account of the role of music amongst communities imprisoned under Nazism. 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. Music in the Holocaust 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.","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54227930710360,"sku":"9780199211180","price":68.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780199211180_4e08ad06-58ab-43cb-a4ea-ff4b468b5e3f.jpg?v=1764853210","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/music-in-the-holocaust","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
