Jeremy Schonfeld describes his upbringing as one in the shadows of a Holocaust survivor. His father, Gustav Schonfeld, was 10 years old when he was forced into a Nazi concetration camp. Nearly 6 million Jews were murdered during the Holocaust, including many of the Schonfelds’ extended family. After surviving the Holocaust, Gustav moved to St. Louis and became a doctor at Washington University. He continued to search for answers and he detailed those quandaries and journey from Czechoslovakia to the St. Louis area in his memoir “Absence of Closure.” Jeremy Schonfeld sought to sonically capture the essence of his father’s memoir. But as he worked to compose a concert based on his father’s words, he realized it wasn’t his story to tell.
