Album Description
The San Francisco Girls Chorus presents a musical tribute to the children who were victims of the Holocaust during World War II. This provacative choral work is based on poetry written by children who were interned in the ghetto of Terezin on their tragic journey to Auschwitz from 1941-1945. Many of the pieces are a cappella. Pianist Dwight Okamura accompanies the remainder.

This is one of the most beautiful CDs I've heard. Charles Davidson has set the Terezin Poems to music so perfectly that they demand a choir of this caliber to perform them. This disc will take your breath away.
