Music as a Form of Resistance and Self-Expression

Music as a Form of Resistance and Self-Expression is a newly developed lesson utilizing a violin that was brought to America from Romania in the early 1930s. We will bring the violin to the school and either present about self-expression and music in the Holocaust or allow the violin to be used in a teacher’s existing lesson plan. If the school has a student(s) who play the violin, they may be given the opportunity to learn a couple of traditional Jewish melodies and play the violin for their class and/or assembly.
