TRANSCRIPT
-[DAVID WISNIA:] Music was my life, right from the beginning.
I always sang.
When I got into the camp, that's what saved my life.
Most of the people who came in to Auschwitz did not last more than about a month.
Everybody: "Hey, Wisnia, get down.
Sing!"
[singing in German] -[AVI WISNIA:] We always knew that he survived by singing.
But he could not have done it alone.
