Haim - In the Light of a Violin

Work:: Haim - In the Light of a Violin (S752124311)

Haim - In the Light of a Violin is a theatrical and musical show that retraces the true story of Ha?m Lipsky - a Polish Jew born in 1922 into a poor working-class family, who became a passionate violinist, and survived the hell of the death camps thanks to music. This musical tale, mixing classical pieces and klezmer melodies, is a testimony of survival through art, of hope preserved in the heart of darkness, and of the importance of musical heritage.
