The Last Musician of Auschwitz Q&A with director Toby Trackman
Marking 2025's Holocaust Memorial Day, The Last Musician of Auschwitz tells the extraordinary story of cellist Anita Lasker-Wallfisch, the only surviving member of the Women’s Orchestra at Auschwitz. The film also brings to life the testimony of other inmates who performed and wrote music at the concentration camp, while weaving in a series of powerful new performances of their compositions.
This Q&A followed a premiere at the British Museum, and saw BBC Arts Commissioner Suzy Klein interview Director Toby Trackman about the making of the film.
