In World War II-era Europe, this situation was reality. Joshua Jacobson, Stotsky professor of music, and Virgil Boseman, senior music major, will speak. In addition to Eskin, The Zamir Chorale of Boston, Jules Rosenberg, Jeanne Segal, Scott Sokol, and Louise Tretman will perform. The Third Reich banned modernist and neo-classicist music, including jazz. Nazis would not allow works by Jewish and African-American composers and performers to be performed, due to what Hitler believed was their depraved nature.
Admission is free.
