During WWII, over a million died in Auschwitz, the most notorious place on the surface of the earth.

Polish composer Henryk Gorecki's Symphony 3 called Symphony of Sorrowful Songs used poems

scrawled into the wall by Auschwitz inmates. Six million Jews and six million Poles, Russians and others

were eliminated. Gorecki wanted to immortalize the dead in music, in humbleness and conciliation.
