COMPOSER'S NOTES
Original composition by Jorge Grundman whose purpose is to capture the shame and horrors of the Jewish Holocaust in the collective memory. It is a Partita for violin consisting of seven musical movements. Each of them is dedicated to one of the concentration camps and ghettos of the Second World War. The idea arose from the need to write music to honor, among others, the children who made more than four thousand five hundred drawings between 1942 and 1944 in the concentration camps to escape from the terror that surrounded them.
