Payadora Tango Ensemble - Silent Tears: The Last Yiddish Tango - [CD]

“Silent Tears” is based on poems, testimonies and writings of women who were victims of **ual violence, forced sterilization and human experimentation during the Holocaust. Some songs are from a project led by Dr. Paula David, a social worker at a Toronto Jewish care home who helped survivors process their trauma by writing collective poetry. Others are from Molly Applebaum, a Toronto-based author, who, during her adolescent years, was buried underground in a small wooden box in a barn in Dabrowa Tarnowska, Poland during the war.
