  1. "One of the biggest traumas that people had in the #Bershad #ghetto was that no one would notice the death,” #Shternshis told the #Jewish Telegraphic Agency. “So the #song that did talk about the lack of empathy, but also talked about the funeral, was actually a fantasy that all these things would happen — a prayer, a grave.”

    This is Shternshis’ second “#Yiddish Glory” #album aiming to resurrect #music from witnesses of the #Holocaust in the #SovietUnion. Her first album in 2018, titled “#YiddishGlory: The Lost #Songs of #WorldWarII,” was nominated for a #Grammy.

    That project was the first she reaped from the discovery of #Beregovsky’s documents, and it focused largely on songs collected from #Russian soldiers who fought against the #Nazis. The “Silenced Songs” album centers almost entirely on #Jews who lived in the #ghettos and #concentrationcamps of #Ukraine’s #Vinnytsia region, which was occupied by #Romania and #Nazi #Germany from 1941 to 1944."
