AB The research project brings to the work started in 2009 by the PhD student Rocío González Cabello on the history and role played by music during the years 1933 to 1945. From its strategic and political service used during the Third Reich, to its use and function in the Nazi ghettos and concentration camps, especially in the concentration and extermination camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau. For this reason, this doctoral thesis aims to provide more information about what really happened in these places, focusing its object of study on the influence of music between the aforementioned years and in different scenarios, corroborating the functionality, purpose and meaning that music acquired within a highly complex context, all with an educational and social basis supported by the thirteen life stories collected. The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to society, starting with the youngest, the importance of knowing the history, showing the fundamental role that music played in an extreme context, where the intention was to dehumanize all the people who were deported to concentration and extermination camps. The access to little-known information, provided and translated into Spanish, will broaden the education and knowledge of a reality little studied in Spain. Considering essential to explain the difficult union between a positive cultural element such as music and how it affected the salvation of many people, with a very negative one such as the intention to exterminate millions of them, for reasons of race, religion, sexual orientation or politics.The sound of the Holocaust, the metaphor that guides this research, aims to be an exhaustive study of the fundamental role that music played during the Second World War, among those who had the task of creating and interpreting it, as well as those who listened to it and those who were part of its use as mockery and torture. A research that has paid special attention to the ghettos of Krakow, Warsaw and Terezín, the Mauthausen camp and the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp.
