Jews who fled the rise of fascism in Europe in the 1930’s flocked to California. Many became involved in the film and music industry, enriching American and world culture in the process. This program features soprano, filmmaker, and scholar Christina Linhardt and renowned pianist Brian Pezzone, who tell the stories behind the composers and their work as well as perform them.
This program was funded by the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, who we thank for their generous support.
COLLAGE is an arts venue in San Pedro that opened in July 2021. The mission of COLLAGE is to serve both the local and broader community with programs that are adventurous yet accessible. This is done by taking an expansive view of art that can include the visual, performative, culinary, and literary world, and making culture inclusive to consider ethnicity, affinity, ability, and emerging ways people are brought together.
