January 27th: Night of remembrance

Descendent speaker Richard Bank shared his family's survival story, and combined choirs from both congregations performed a variety of pieces, including "Ani Maanim," "Es Brent," and excerpts from "Brundibar," the children's opera composed and performed in Theresienstadt.
