Rebecca--

First, have you checked your local library, or the library at a community
college or university near your home? Also, while you stated no websites,
is there any prohibition from you using your computer to do an internet
search for books on the subject? Thos questions having been asked... I
suggest that you go go to a library, and check the New Grove's Dictionary of
Music and Musicians (proper title?). Most of the articles provide an
excellent bibliography.

Now that I've re-read your post, and realize that you have checked your
local library, and that time is of the essence, I suggest that you rent the
DVD of The Pianist. This is the true story of a Polish Jewish concert
pianist that survived the Holocaust, was the sole surviving member of his
family, and resumed his career after the war. There is also a soundtrach
available.

Subject: [kl] I need help!

So our lovely little Rebecca has landed herself in summer school...English
class...

I have to do a research paper! AAAHHHHHH! The fact that I am always
insistent on having some kind of musical subject didn't make it easier this
time. It made it HARDER!!! I am not trying to get anyone to do my homework
for me, but the sources I have available are very limited. The rule...no
websites. I can use books, encyclopedias, interviews, etc...

The topic, a pretty usual one, is the holocaust. My specific topic deals
with the Jewish musicians durring the time whether they were in
concentration camps or not. The main source I am using is the book, "The
Inextenguishable Symphony." But I have to have at least three sources.

Logan was never a good place for anything musical, so it didn't surprise me
that I found nothing in the library. We are just doing a short paper, just
to do the process of the cards and researching, so I haven't got the time to

order a book. I probably don't have the time to read it either. I only have
until Tuesday because this is short. 2 1/2 pages long! It is just for
practice.

If anyone can give me any book or movie titles that deal with Holocaust
musicians, or even better, Rosemarie Gumpert, I would appreciate the help.
Also, if anyone would be willing to send me their knowledge on the subject,
that would be good too. I will appreciate any help!
