  1. Hearing these instruments play instantly brought me to tears. This is an incredible effort with profound significance.

  2. This was an amazing story in regards to memorializing the Holocaust. However, please don't forget the five million ethnic minorities that were taken by the same ignorance that took six million Jewish people. To forget a single victim of such a tradgic historical event, dishonor all of them. ☮️ 🕯

  3. Hearing every note from each of these instruments brings it all to life.

  4. ru in shlum

    Rest in Peace

  5. Another huge, continuous lethal example of why & how lies are harmful.

  6. The pianist was a sad film
