The Nazis tried to silence them, but their stories and music live
on. With music ranging from Berlin cabaret tunes and Gershwin to
songs written in the camps, One Voice tells the story of the GLBT
and Jewish communities in the Holocaust. Join us for a concert of
hope and resistance, with guest choirs from Shir Tikvah and Bet
Shalom synagogues and featured cellist Janet Horvath. Photo displays
provided by the Tretter GLBT Archive.

One Voice Speaks #1:
In our first podcast, we take you behind the scenes to hear us
rehearse "Ain't Necessarily So," and to learn about the role this
song played in the Danish Resistance during Nazi Occupation.
One Voice Speaks #2:
For this podcast, we spoke with Janet Horvath, associate principal
cellist with the Minnesota Orchestra and guest artist for our Winter
concert. Ms. Horvath discusses learning about her father's
involvement with the Jewish Orchestra in post-World War II Europe
and what this concert means to her.
