Description

The message in these letters from people condemned to death has been carved deeply into my heart, just as it has been carved into the hearts of all those who understand these letters as testimonies of love, as conscious decisions and responsibility towards life, and as a model of sacrifice and resistance to Nazism, that monstrosity of irrationalism that tried to destroy reason. [...] The legacy of these letters found expression in my composition. Luigi Nono (from Luigi Nono: Texte, Studien seiner Musik)
