August 4th to October 24 the Virginia Holocaust Museum will be exhibiting a collection of violins played by Jewish musicians in the camps and ghettos during the Holocaust. Most of the concentration and work camps had bands and orchestras and the ability to play instruments was helpful in saving many lives. Several of the violins and the stories behind them are included in the exhibition and more stories can be found in Dr. Grymes amazing book, "Violins of Hope".
