For a Better Future: Honouring Holocaust Memorial Day Through Music
Join us this Holocaust Memorial Day, Monday 27th at 12:30pm, as we commemorate two significant anniversaries—the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau and the 30th anniversary of the genocide in Bosnia. This year’s theme reminds us that creating a brighter future begins with remembering our past.

A welcome from Vice Chancellor Richard Davies will be followed by acclaimed concert pianist Dr Robert Taub, who will guide you through a transformative journey with Beethoven's powerful Piano Sonata Op.53 (Waldstein).

In its timeless brilliance, Beethoven's Waldstein is more than music; it is a testament to resilience and creativity born from adversity. Composed during one of Beethoven’s darkest moments—his admission of impending deafness—this sonata embodies triumph over despair, embodying self-determination and hope for future generations.

Experience how this revolutionary work transcends time and borders—a universal language reminding us that even in darkness, beauty prevails!
Join us in the Roland Levinsky Lecture Hall at 12:30pm as we come together to reflect on history while igniting inspiration for a better tomorrow through the harmonious power of music!
