The Lost Music of Auschwitz

Prisoners of Auschwitz were forced to play music to entertain Nazi officers. However, in the face terror, they were able to weave secret melodies into their songs in an act of resilience. Here, 80 years since the liberation of the concentration camps, composer Leo Geyer’s ensemble performs the long-forgotten works in a 60-minute concert. Geyer will share the powerful stories behind each composition, paying tribute to the creativity and enduring strength of the human spirit.

2pm. From £39.50. Quays Theatre, The Lowry, Salford, M50 3AZ. www.thelowry.com
