"Fabulous!!! Book club all rated this at max. Moving tribute to power of love beyond the power of hate. Led to wide open discussions and made us all ponder the moral questions faced by the musicians. Should be required reading in high school."
"This is an incredible book. Goldsmith seamlessly melds the personal stories of his parents and family with the history of the organization for Jewish artists (of all sorts) that existed as long as it suited the purposes of the SS for it to exist."
"Ted Koppel of ABC News said it best. "A fascinating insight into a virtually unknown chapter of Nazi rule in Germany, made all the more engaging through a son's discovery of his own remarkable parents.""
