Aide Memoire is not only about the Holocaust. It deals with matters relating to present life and reality. It deals with violence, wars, and their impact on our lives. I created this dance in order to scream: Stop the violence! Stop the holocausts! The subject of the Holocaust has been dealt with in every form of art, including modern dance.

You asked for it, jazzed up: a live request show from half past seven.

“I am very glad to be able to tell you that your viola concerto is ready in draft, so that only the score has to be written, which means a purely mechanical work, so to speak. If nothing happens, I can be through in 5 or 6 weeks,” wrote Bartók to violist William Primrose.
