A concert in Joseph Roth’s synagogue
mainThis is what remains of the Great Synagogue in Brody, once a thriving mainly-Jewish town on the Austrian-Russian border, birthplace of the great writer, Joseph Roth.
The Nazis wrecked the building, the Soviets neglected it.
This week, the Ukrainian conductor Oksana Lyniv led a performance of part of Leonard Bernstein’s Kaddish to mark the 125th anniversary of Joseph Roth’s birth.
