In anticipation of Holocaust Remembrance Day, a screening and discussion of the documentary film “Defiant Requiem” illuminate the story of how Prague musician Rafael Schächter led multiple performances of Verdi’s “Requiem” at the Terezin concentration camp during World War II. Sixty years later, Maryland-based conductor Murry Sidlin led a commemorative performance at the site. Both stories demonstrate the power of music to sustain human spirits in the most challenging circumstances.
