"The piece opens with Anders Vinjar’s recording of the stark ambiance outside Auschwitz's crematoriums. A voice notes a chilling continuity: "the acoustics are the same today as it was in 1942".
Holocaust survivors then share their stories, interwoven with supporting music. Abrupt cuts jolt listeners back to the haunting recording at Auschwitz. As the piece progresses, survivors' warnings blend with news clips and commentary, reflecting humanity's failure of "never again".
Vocals and music become increasingly echoed and distorted, mirroring the terrible echoes of history that continue to repeat today.
The piece closes with a plea from a survivor: ending hate and intolerance starts with each of us.
