THANKSGIVING DINNERS

In addition, it was a wonderful
propaganda tool.
A TRUE STORY
"As international criticism of the
Nazis grew, they could shrug their
OF MUSIC AND LOVE
shoulders and say plaintively, 'How
bad could it be? Look, they even
IN NAZI GERMANY
have their own orchestra, their
own opera company — we're
treating them just fine."'
The fright of Kristallnacht —
painfully described in the book —
gave Goldsmith's parents a final
wake-up call. It was at a party at
the American embassy that the
young couple met a woman who
began pulling strings for them to
THE
immigrate to the United States.
INEXTINOUISHABLE
The Goldschmidts were only 27
r --t
and 24 years old when they left
Germany forever.

One of the first things they did
on arriving in the United States
was change their names to George
and Rosemary Goldsmith.
Now senior commentator on
MARTIN GOLDSMITH
National Public Radio, Martin
Goldsmith is former host of that
station's classical music program Performance
Today. He has also been an actor. Layer this
year, he will become director of the classical
music channel on the satellite music station
XM, which will enable listeners to receive a
strong signal from coast to coast.
The second of two sons, he spent most of his
childhood in Cleveland, where he had many
Jewish friends. "But I did not think of myself
as a Jew then, because I was not raised that
way," he said. "I attended my first seder in
Cleveland when I was 16 or 17."
Completing this book and learning about
his family has strengthened his Jewish roots,
he said.
As far as a belief in God, I'm not sure what
I think. I agree with Horatio when he says to
Hamlet, 'There are more things in heaven and
earth than are dreamt of in your philosophies.
---- Martin. Goldsmith
But exactly what I believe, where this con-
cept of God is, I'm not sure at the moment. But
certainly what's called 'culturally,' I'm a Jew."
The Inextinguishable Symphony startles the
reader with a sense of excitement usually
reserved for fiction. Look for the bucolic
scenes of the youn , couple as they first fall in
love. Contrast that lush writing with the spare
style in which George Goldsmith recounts the
death of his father and brother after nearly
two years in a French internment camp.
The book's climax depicts Martin Goldsmith
and his brother, Peter, in Germany, marching
with the citizens of Oldenburg as they do their
annual penance for Kristallnacht.
