This musical event, devised by Patricia Jankowska, is organised in collaboration with the Conservatoire Royal de Bruxelles. The aim is to shed light on the life and work of this emblematic figure in the defence of children’s rights. A paediatrician, teacher and author, Janusz Korczak fought all his life for these rights, giving up his own to accompany them when they were deported to Treblinka in 1942. Music by Piotr Moss, under the artistic coordination of Jean-Marc Fessard, will accompany this moving presentation of Korczak’s destiny.
