More details

Seven prisoners escape from a concentration camp during the Nazi era; only one survives and gropes his way to freedom on a dangerous path. Hans Werner Henze used the material from Anna Seghers's seminal novel as the basis for his Ninth Symphony, which, according to the composer, is "an expression of the greatest reverence for the people who resisted during the period of Nazi-fascist terror and who gave their lives for freedom of thought."
