27th of January - Holocaust Remembrance Day
IMPORTANT: Please watch the video for the "Dance of the Forgotten" here: http://youtu.be/bFbuBmyxMZ4
=====================================
Among the millions of victims of the Nazi Regime and the Holocaust, one group is still forgotten today: the nearly 400.000 victims were people with disabilites in the so called "Euthanasie" programs. In fact, they were the first victims of the Nazi regime, and they were the first human beings killed in gas chambers. The "technology" of gas chambers and "death plants" ("Todesfabriken") was first developed for and tested on the German people with disabilities. 

They were regarded as "unwertes Leben" ("unworthy life") and "Ballastexistenzen" ("ballast people"), "wertlose Menschenhülsen" ("worthless human bodies") and "nutzlose Esser" ("useless eaters"). At the end of the programme nearly everybody was in danger, who could not work, even elderly people and wounded soldiers were "euthanized".

Their names are still kept secret. Many of their families still feel "ashamed" today. They feared being viewed as having been "infected" by their disabled relatives ("erbkrank").

The victims of "Euthanasie" were legally not accepted as persecuted by the Nazis and thus did never receive any reparation. It took until the year 2007 (sic!) that the German Bundestag declared the "Erbgesundheitsgesetz" for illegal.

Most of the involved doctors continued their normal lives after the war. The victims were forgotten.

This piece goes therefore out to these forgotten victims of "Euthanasie", because "if we forget the victims, we murder them a second time."

This piece is part of the "Holocaust Remembrance Suite" for solo piano, which is an unique remembrance project, which has grown out of a collaboration between Stephan Beneking, composer based in Berlin, and pianist Hal Freedman (https://soundcloud.com/classical-soul-pianist) from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. 

The innocence and beauty of pure piano classical music 
poses a stark contrast to the horrors of the Third Reich and the Holocaust.

Each piece in the Holocaust Remembrance Suite contains a vital message about the war crimes and atrocities of the past. Unfortunately, the message is applicable to conditons that persist in our world today. It is our sincere hope to raise social awareness of these problems through this important project.

The Suite is accompanied by dramatic videos showing images, which further tell the story behind each individual piece:

OLÉ GUAPA

"ode til tiden, der kommer og danser", komponeret af Christian Hildebrandt i august 1999 til Aventura Kammerkor som en del af korets markering af årtusindskiftet. Teksten er et originaldigt af Kasper Nefer Olsen, der tager udgangspunkt i den antikke sapphiske strofe og reflekterer over tidens væsen – dens stilhed, dens uophørlige bevægelse og dens dans gennem menneskers erindring og drømme.

Musikken er tænkt som en meditativ rejse, hvor koret bevæger sig fra enkel, næsten hymnelignende stilhed til mere komplekse og bølgende forløb. Rytmen er præget af ro og langsom fremdrift, men afbrydes af glimt af intensitet, hvor tiden selv træder frem som en dansende kraft. Kontrasterne mellem stille klangflader og pulserende bevægelser spejler spændingen mellem fortid, nutid og fremtid, og værket kredser om spørgsmålet: er det os, der former tiden, eller er det tiden, der danser i os?

Værket varer ca. seks minutter og er skrevet for blandet kor a cappella (SATB). Det søger at fastholde et øjeblik ved tærsklen til en ny tid, men samtidig pege på tidens evige strøm, hvor mennesket altid står midt i bevægelsen – lyttende, ventende, håbende.

"ode to time, that comes and dances" was composed by Christian Hildebrandt in August 1999 for the chamber choir Aventura as part of their celebration of the new millennium. The text is an original poem by Kasper Nefer Olsen, inspired by the ancient Sapphic stanza, reflecting on the nature of time – its stillness, its ceaseless movement, and its dance through human memory and dreams.

The music unfolds as a meditative journey, moving from simple, hymn-like stillness into more complex, flowing textures. The rhythm is marked by calm and gradual progression, interrupted by flashes of intensity where time itself seems to appear as a dancing force. Contrasts between quiet soundscapes and pulsing movement mirror the tension between past, present, and future, circling around the question: do we shape time, or does time dance within us?

The work lasts about six minutes and is scored for mixed choir a cappella (SATB). It seeks to capture a moment at the threshold of a new era while pointing toward the eternal stream of time, in which humanity always finds itself—listening, waiting, and hoping.
