2025-2026 Concert Series

Funding for "Dedication" was made through the MCHE Jack Mandelbaum Holocaust Education Fund.

New York pianist, Roger Peltzman’s one-person show, "Dedication," recounts his family’s tragic history fleeing the Nazis in war-torn Europe using drama, humor, powerful images, and musical performances of everything from blues to Chopin.

Drawn into the story of people he never knew, Peltzman develops a “relationship” with his uncle, Norbert Stern, a brilliant pianist who was murdered in Auschwitz at age 21. Learning that Holocaust trauma can be inherited, Peltzman recounts his coming to terms with second-generation survivor trauma and the role of music in helping to manage wounds that will never fully heal.

A singular tale from the Holocaust that is at once extraordinary and relatable.

Recommended for ages 12+
