OP
Her life story is in her voice. Her nickname "Little Sparrow" was apt. Her voice is blues.

She would have group pictures taken, then enlarge several prisoner faces, have ID cards made, and the next time she and her musicians played at that camp, they would walk in with 18 musicians, and walk out with 23. The Nazi never caught on.

One does not have to understand the words or the language to feel the emotion. She is/was a treasure for all time.
