Past, Present, & Future: "A Song of Restoration"

Quellen: Sources For Restoration

Welcome to the first edition of "Past, Present, & Future" a podcast by Quellen International. In this episode, Micah speaks to historian, professor, author, and pianist, Bill Niven, about his recent piano composition entitled "Roots".

Back in early 2020, artist and Holocaust educator Caroline Slifkin, along with Amy Williams, who just finished her Ph.D. on the memory of the Kindertransport, began working on a project entitled "Keepsakes of Kindertransport". Together they called on Kinder and their families as well as students and academics to contribute reflective art pieces. Bill Niven was one of the people they invited to contribute. Despite being mostly an improviser and hobbyist, Bill decided to compose a special instrumental to help tell the story of 10,000 brave children who escaped Nazi Germany by train.
