Divided into various chapters. Includes several full page illustrations of scenes from the camp. Vlastimil Louda was a musician prisoner at Buchenwald who played in the camp orchestra. The orchestra played at the camp gates in the mornings and evenings as inmates marched to and from their forced labour assignments. The musicians were eventually granted freedom from other work commandos, and a designated room to practise in. However, the SS liked to spend their leisure time there, and would often barrage them with requests. When visitors came, the band sometimes had to play in order to cover up the punishment of prisoners, or to serve as an advertisement for the good treatment of the Buchenwald inmates. The most important change for the Buchenwald orchestra was the appointment of Vlastimil Louda as central bandmaster. Under his leadership, the band increased in size, its repertoire expanded and the quality of performance improved dramatically (HolocaustMusic.org 2017) .
