The Remarkable Klara Belkin: A cello's perilous journey to Canada (Part 3)

Loading player...
In the third chapter of Klara Belkin’s extraordinary journey, we follow her out of the ashes of war and through the struggle of rebuilding her life in a world forever altered.

After surviving the horrors of Bergen-Belsen and the upheaval of post-war Hungary, Klara’s path led to a daring escape — a journey that would take her from Budapest to Vienna, and ultimately to Canada.

Her life would flourish in ways she never could have imagined — becoming a celebrated cellist, a professor and a mother.

But despite the years of success and happiness, Klara hasn't forgotten the past that shaped her.

Klara’s story is not just one of survival; it’s a story of remembrance and resilience, a call to ensure that we never forget the lessons of history.
