Yo-Yo Ma joined ninety-year-old survivor and pianist George Horner in a historic performance of songs by Karel Svenk which Dr. Horner had performed seventy years ago as a prisoner in Terezin. Video from NBC Nightly News captures the story.
George Horner "is a window into a slice of history that we never want to see again."
