2019 REPORT
International Youth Encounters in Terezín
An international youth gathering “International Youth Encounters in Terezín” was held in Terezín between August 19 and 22, 2019. The aim of the meeting was to commemorate the legacy of the composers who were despite the difficult conditions of imprisonment in the Terezín ghetto during the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia able to create melodious tones and forget (and help others forget) about the woes of life in the ghetto, and to recall this legacy to students as well as to wider public. This year´s meeting was the third edition of the international youth encounters. The first meeting took place in 2017, at the same year that the Terezín Composers´ Institute was founded.
