“Avi Wisnia Delivers Something New”
The Music Talks review of Avi Wisnia’s title track.
” 5/5: endearing, catchy and fresh … with a deep and soulful voice.
If you’re looking for something new, you will definitely find it in Avi Wisnia’s new album.”

My grandfather has seen war from all sides:
as a prisoner and as a liberator;
as a soldier and as an immigrant and as a refugee.
He is a Survivor.
Come hear his story of survival, and the music that saved his life which we will perform together. Our concert includes a song my grandfather composed while a prisoner in the Auschwitz concentration camp that I translated into English. Music passed down from generation to generation. A story as important now as it will ever be.
