Between Warsaw and Jerusalem
A Musical Tribute to the Holocaust

A Musical Journey into the Lost World of Polish Jews after the Holocaust – Where Imagination Meets Reality

Yair Klinger composed a moving cantata inspired by Dudu Barak’s book: "Poland, Between Splendor and Ashes."

The work evolved into a musical-theatrical performance — a poignant journey between memory and renewal — produced and directed by Klinger himself.

Performed by the “HaRa’ananim” Ensemble, soprano Sigal Vardi, and pianist Gilad Shapira, the production blends poetry, music, and emotion into a powerful reflection on the lost world of Polish Jewry after the Holocaust.

The performance was presented several times to deeply moved audiences, resonating with themes of loss, beauty, and hope.
