Violins of Hope is a collection of restored violins that were played by Jewish musicians during the Holocaust. These instruments have survived concentration camps, ghettos, pogroms, and many long journeys to tell remarkable stories of injustice, suffering, resilience, and survival. On February 5-7, 2023, concerts will be performed using the Violins of Hope at the Bankhead Theatre in Livermore. And now the music of violins comes alive again in Livermore with concerts performed by Livermore-Amador Symphony (LAS), conducted by Lara Webber with special performances by violinist Lindsay Deutsch and cellist Peter Bedrossian. Avshi Weinstein, co-founder of Violins of Hope, will provide stories for several of the instruments. Join the journey through time and music with Violins of Hope.
