The Women's Orchestra of Auschwitz with Anne Sebba
Monday 12 May at 2pm.
In 1943, German officers in charge of Auschwitz-Birkenau camp ordered that an orchestra should be formed among the female prisoners. It was the only entirely female orchestra in any of the Nazi prison camps and, for almost all of the musicians chosen to take part, being in the orchestra was to save their lives.
Tickets cost £5 each and can be booked online. The event is suitable for adults.
