Semer Ensemble
Rescued Treasure
A Treasury of Jewish music almost forgotten: repertoire from 1930s Berlin recorded by Hirsch Lewin on the Semer label later destroyed by the Nazis on November 9th, 1938 (Kristallnacht). The collection, painstakingly reconstructed sixty years later by Dr. Rainer Lotz, from private collections around the world, is given life anew by the virtuosic Semer Ensemble in this Concerts By The Canal-exclusive concert, hosted by Southminster United Church, presented in partnership with the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany, RideauStone Arts Centre and artspace613.
