On Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) We Remember With the Theme From Schindler's List

There are very few days in the year when we don't post jokes or funny anecdotes, and today is one of them.  

Today we commemorate Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day. It's not a day for Jewish humor, but it can be and should be a day to recognize acts of bravery and compassion of Jews and non-Jews who saved lives in those troubled days of the 20th century.

The essence of heroic resistance was captured in Steven Spielberg's 1993 film Schindler's List and the haunting theme that recurs during the film.

This live performance of the Schindler's List theme was recorded at the Sydney Opera House in Australia in 2017. The performers are the musical duo known as 2Cellos, a Croatian cellist duo, consisting of classically trained cellists Luka Šulić and Stjepan Hauser. Signed to Sony Masterworks since 2011, they have released six albums. They play instrumental arrangements of well-known pop and rock songs, as well as classical and film music.
