Gesprächskonzert mit Dr. D. Zisl Slepovitch

Dr. D. Zisl Slepovitch is the Musician-in-residence in the Fortunoff Video Archive for Holocaust Testimonies at Yale University, helmed by its director Stephen Naron. The Archive, founded in 1979 as a grassroots initiative, has amassed over 4400 testimonies of Holocaust survivors and witnesses, over 60 of which contain valuable pieces of music and poetry. In 2018 Dr. Slepovitch started his work on the Archive’s music project, named Songs from Testimonies, in this complex multidisciplinary and cross-industry role. Over the past six years he produced, together with the Zisl Slepovitch Ensemble featuring singer Sasha Lurje, three music albums, a video series, performed and gave talks in the United States, Israel and Europe. Songs from Testimonies project creates a window into the survivors and witnesses’ lives and amplifies their voices, which seems important now as never before since the Holocaust.
