The Terezín Project” with Mark Ludwig on Nov. 14 at the Quick Center
On Nov. 14 at 7:30 p.m., Fairfield University’s Open VISIONS Forum, Bennett Center for Judaic Studies, and the Jewish Federation of Greater Fairfield County will welcome Mark Ludwig, founder of the Terezín Music Foundation (TMF), for the 27thAnnual Jacoby Lunin Humanitarian Lecture. The program is entitled “The Terezín Project” and will be held at the Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts.
Mark Ludwig has dedicated his career to preserving and educating the public about the music composed by artists imprisoned in Terezín (Theresienstadt), a Nazi concentration camp during World War II, now located in the Czech Republic. His non-profit organization TMF brings these compositions to life through performances by musicians from diverse backgrounds.
The Quick Center event on Nov. 13 will feature a powerful program of narration, art, and music by Holocaust composer Hans Krása, best known for Brundibár. The presentation will be led by Ludwig, and accompanied by performances from the Terezín Quartet and Jim Schantz.
In addition to his work with TMF, Ludwig is a violist and Boston Symphony Orchestra member emeritus, known for his passion for the intersection of art and social justice. His philanthropic efforts include fundraising for the Sarajevo community following the 1992 war and spearheading relief efforts for the 2002 Czech floods. His impact in cultural advocacy led to an invitation from both the Czech government and the U.S. State Department to direct a Czech-American cultural program.
This Jacoby Lunin Lecture event is co-sponsored by Moffly Media, Delamar Southport, Delamar Spa, and Artisan. Tickets are now on sale at quickcenter.com for $20 for general admission, $15 for Quick Members, and FREE for Fairfield University Students, Faculty, and Staff (Ticket Reservation Required). For more information, contact the Quick Center Box Office at 203-254-4010, Monday through Friday from 12-5 p.m.
