Andor the Spielmann

The life-story of Andor Izs©Łk told here is interwoven with the political turmoil and human uprooting of the 20th century. A childhood in German-occupied Hungary, with its systematic persecution of the Jews, gives way to youth and young adulthood caught within the straightjacket of a socialist society. Brought up in a devout, strictly observant Jewish family, Andor Izs©Łk experiences the call of music as the constant guiding-light of his life. He makes it his mission to restore the great tradition of 19th century synagogue music, and with it the organ in all its incomparable resonance, to its former place in Jewish worship. In Hanover, Germany, he finally comes close to his goal.
