Voices of the Shoah audio documentary from Rhino Entertainment and Notowitz Productions

Voices of the Shoah is one of the first audio documentaries that follows the voices of Holocaust survivors, from their earliest memories, through the war, immigrating to America, to today. A perfect educational resource from Rhino Entertainment and Notowitz Productions.

Voices includes interviews with survivors of the Holocaust, interviews from American soldiers who liberated the camps, and astounding stories of Jews who resisted by fighting Germans as partisans, escaped, or were hidden in Europe during WWII.

From the producer of Carpati, the editor of The Last Klezmer, and Rhino Entertainment…

A journey you will never forget
A time that defies explanation.

From the lips of those who directly experienced
the horrors and miraculous rescues of WWII…

Stunning Reviews for Voices of the Shoah

“A stunning sculpture in sound”
— The Jewish Week

“Remarkable and rending.”
–David Elliott, San Diego Union-Tribune

“One of the most important collections
to ever emerge on the spoken word scene.”
–TheEntertainmentReport.com

“Ground breaking… doesn’t get bogged down in politics and scholarly rhetoric. The focus here is closer to home: real people reacting to the unfathomable… it can’t help but bring to mind parallels of hate even in our own time…” –CheckOut.com (Rated 8 of 10)

“a rich resource…”
–Arizona Education Assoc. review

[Notowitz understands that] ”
…the deep eloquence of a single human voice
can serve as the most powerful testimony of all.”
–CDNow.com

Nothing has ever been done on the Shoah (the Holocaust of WWII) in audio. We have gathered the most powerful and inspiring stories and put them here for you, into a 4 CD / 4 cassette and book set. As a friend of mine said, it’s like having your great grandmother whisper into your ear.

Holocaust survivors went through hell — lost family, friends, and entire communities, and still, after the war, they found strength to rebuild their life — remarry, have children, and choose to see the good in people. We have a lot to learn from their stories.

• A Jew fights from the forests of Poland.
• A father bribes a farmer to hide his daughter and wife for the duration of the war.
• A Jewish-American soldier liberates Dachau.
• A rabbi secretly transports Jews to the U.S. and Israel.

The strength these survivors show will inspire, enlighten, and empower us.

“It’s almost like you’ve lived on borrowed time, a time that really wasn’t yours. In one sense, your life could have ended, but it didn’t.”
—John Rauch

“I lost my entire family. I lost my husband, my brothers, and my husband’s entire family, but I still have my toes, I still have my feet, and I’m still dancing.”
—Cesia Kingston

Narrated by Elliott Gould. With a beautiful 100 page book w/pictures, timeline, history, discussion questions, and much more!

Voices of the Shoah has been called “Remarkable“, “A Stunning Sculpture“, and “Ground-breaking“, and I hope that you will take the opportunity to learn and grow from experiencing its power.
