Zusammenfassung:
Audible Testimonies considers music and sound in relation to surviving the Holocaust and Third Reich, engaging with new sources and largely unknown musicians. The book adds to the growing literature on music trauma studies by providing a model for analyzing sounding testimonies. In particular, it considers women's testimonies through their postwar singing and original songs. The voice thus becomes a site of trauma and an instrument for working through it. As the performances and compositions of survivor musicians reveal, music making provided a rare public platform for individuals to share their traumatic experiences of Nazi terror.
