This piece is devoted to Petr Ginz (February 1, 1928 - September 28, 1944), a very creative young boy and multi-talented artist, who lived in Prague and was murdered in the Holocaust. 

His painting "Moon Landscape" and his "Prague diary" became world famous after the 2003 Columbia space shuttle tragedy. 
Ilan Ramon, the first Israeli astronaut and the son of an Auschwitz survivor, had borrowed the drawing from the collection of the Yad Vashem Museum in Israel and taken it with him on the Columbia voyage. When the shuttle exploded over Texas and the story of Petr's drawing was told, a man contacted Yad Vashem saying that he had discovered Petr's old copybooks in the attic of his home in Prague.

Petr Ginz stands for immeasurable loss of talent in the Holocaust. But he is also a symbol of hope, as his diary and many of his paintings did survive.

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 (@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.

The booklet with descriptions about the historical background and scores / sheet music can be downloaded for free here:

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:

This tune started as an improvisation (which I recorded in one pass), but later I felt it could do with various string instruments & the result is what you now hear. Turn off the lights, close your eyes & enjoy!

This is a very special version of a song which will be included in my "Late Winter Tales" EP. forthcoming on <a href="http://dewtonerecordings.com">Dewtone Recordings</a> May 15th. I rearranged the song in this version for piano and strings for some live shows I could start doing in Milan by the end of May... It is a short but moving song depicting an evening marine scene.  I thought to share it with you. I hope you'll like it.
