Winess 4 - Dreams

A four movement suite. This music was inspired by Professor Emeritus Stephen Jablonsky's viewing Schindler's List in 1993. This is the fourth and final movement of the suite entitled Witness. It tries to depict the dreams that ran through the minds of all those who were imprisoned in the Nazi death camps. Amazingly only three years after the end of the war the state of Israel was born––a dream that none of those prisoners could have possibly imagined. It was a dream first imagined by Theodore Herzl a very long time ago. Believe it or not, 1948 was 72 years ago and the country is still at war with its neighbors. So much for peace in the Middle East, a place where people store a warehouse full of ammonium nitrate in the middle of a city and hope for the best.
