The Terezín Music Foundation organised a concert on 29 June in the Spanish Synagogue in Prague to mark the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the Terezín concentration camp, with the participation of the Boston Children’s Chorus and Mark Ludwig, Director of the Foundation.

One of the works was specially commissioned from Irish composer Elaine Agnew, who was present for its premiere, to words written by Justin Quinn, an Irish poet resident in the Czech Republic.
