A profile of Francesco Lotoro, the Italian composer and pianist who has worked 30 years to recover, catalog, and perform music written during the Holocaust – including works written and performed secretly in Nazi concentration camps. Lotoro converted to Judaism after gravitating towards the religion from a young age. At the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp, inmate orchestras were set up by the Nazis for their entertainment. The main function of the Auschwitz Camp Orchestra was to play marches and concerts. As an entire generation of musicians and artists were imprisoned or killed, Lotoro feels the course of European music would have differed drastically with their influence. He has catalogued over 8,000 pieces of music, which range from symphonies to tunes scribbled on discarded paper. Lotoro collects, arranges, and sometimes completes the works with great care. He argues the point of connection between life and death, in a place like a concentration camp, is music. Prisoners felt the music allowed them a sense of dignity, which Lotoro continues to work to preserve. Includes interviews with Bret Werb, music curator at the U.S. Holocaust Museum; Anita Lasker-Wallfisch, Holocaust survivor and former Auschwitz women’s orchestra member; Waldemar Kropinski, son of composer Jozef Kropinski; and Christoph Kulisiewicz, son of composer Aleksander Kulisiewicz.

Tunde Jegede, a black musician and composer, bridges two classical traditions. His instrument is the Kora, an African harp lute whose roots are in the court of 13th century Mali. First introduced to the Kora in Britain by a Senegalese musician, Tunde later studied in the Gambia where he found himself immersed in its rich oral tradition. In this film, we follow him to the villages of West Africa where he learns from local musicians. We also see him perform his compositions with the London Sinfonietta. What is remarkable about Tunde's music is the way it combines West African and classical European traditions, bringing together a love of both cultures. Combining African experiences with Western structures, spontaneous composition with written musical notation, his 'The Cycle of Reckoning' reflects on the legacy of the African slave trade.
