On Monday, 20 January 2025, while much of the world watched America, the Great Synagogue in Brussels hosted an evening of music preserving the voices of those who were imprisoned in Theresienstadt (modern day Czech Republic) and to commemorate the end of the Holocaust. The President of the Jewish Community in Belgium, Philippe Markiewicz welcomed those present. He was followed by representatives of the Austrian and Czech embassies who set the tone for the evening, imploring each of us to remember the lessons from the Second World War. Wolfgang Holzmair brought the songs to life with his impressive operatic voice and story-telling while Olivier Godin accompanied him on piano. The Secretary-General was pleased to represent the Anglican Church in Belgium at this special occasion.
