Limited Time Opportunities for Educators

Pianist Carolyn Enger’s The Mischlinge Exposé

The Mischlinge Exposé weaves a multimedia tapestry around this little-known aspect of the Holocaust. Interweaving video and audio testimony from Carolyn’s godmother and her father, both labeled “Mischling, Grade A” by the Nazis, with the music of composers from the salon period who converted to Christianity in the decades before the war, and works reacting to questions of identity after the war, the program vividly illustrates what it was like to be between worlds in Germany in the first half of the 20th century. Through the telling of her family story, Ms. Enger’s concert and live documentary The Mischlinge Exposé directly addresses universally significant issues of identity and inclusion, encouraging empathy, tolerance, and engagement.

Carolyn will join us for a public program on Tuesday, January 27, 2026, at 6:30 pm at Eddy Theatre on Chatham University’s campus. Register and learn more here.

Contact Emily Loeb (eloeb@hcpgh.org) if you’re interested in having Carolyn to perform and speak to your students in the morning on Tuesday, January 27. Must have access to a piano. This is a first-come, first-served opportunity!
