Ich wandre durch Theresienstadt

Ilse Weber (1903-1944) played these songs, which had been composed and written by herself, on the guitar with children in the Theresienstadt Ghetto. She died with children from the hospital ward at the concentration camp of Auschwitz. Prisoners testify that she tried to comfort the children in the gas chamber by singing her lullaby Wiegala.
Winfried Radeke presented Ilse Weber's song collection Ich wandre durch Theresienstadt already in 2008 in a version for voice and piano. Now it is also available for three-part women's choir and four-part mixed choir in German and English editions.
Due to their simplicity and tenderness, Ilse Weber's songs are among the most touching testimonies from Theresienstadt. They keep the memory of the Nazi-persecuted author alive.
