You are invited to attend a talk on Sunday, May 30 at 7 pm on Zoom presented by Congregation Emanu-El Synagogue鈥檚 Adult Education Committee.

Dr. Snizek will introduce the concept of "suppressed music" through musical examples and biographical sketches, and discuss some of the contemporary issues and challenges related to reinstating music that was marginalized for racist and ideological reasons during the Shoah.

Suzanne Snizek has performed and presented extensively throughout North America, Europe and Asia. Dr. Snizek鈥檚 ground breaking research on Music in WWII British Internment Camps has been published by B枚hlau Verlag-Vienna, Routledge-New York, the Council of Europe, Berghann-New York, Armand Colin-Paris, and on line by the World ORT website.
