Product Description

I was inspired to write this piece from the film "Defiance" directed by Edward Zwick which portrays a very small insight to events which occurred during the Holocaust. During several scenes the Bielski Partisans are seen walking (through Russian forest) in lines similar to an exodus movement from bombed camps, finding a new camp to live in. Nazis have been present and the Partisan group finds many remains of Jewish bodies piled up high in circles. This particular Partisan group has helped hundreds of Jews survive and by the end of the Holocaust, the group has a very large camp which includes a school, houses, dining room and many other normal facilities we have enjoy everyday.

I was heavily influenced by film composer Hans Zimmer for his use of strings. I chose to write in C minor because of the depth of lower string instruments and the grieving tonality it brings to such a scene.
