In honor of the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the Dachau and Terezin (Theresienstadt) Concentration Camps, University of Missouri-St. Louis professors Kathleen Nigro, Gail Fleming and Barbara Harbach will present “Voices from the Holocaust: Music Makes You Free” at 3 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 23 at Central Reform Congregation, 5020 Waterman Boulevard.

Nigro will give an overview of “Voices from the Holocaust.” Fleming will discuss her visit to the Dachau concentration camp and her meeting in St. Louis with Dachau survivor Mendel Rosenberg. She will also present her musical arrangement of the “Dachaulied” that she took off the walls at Dachau, as well as an original vocal composition in honor of the victims of Dachau.
