Email from Counter Extremism Project (CEP) “Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust” Counter Extremism Project and ARCHER at House 88 Announce Partnership with Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Washington, D.C. for Musical Concert at Kennedy Center: “Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust” (New York, N.Y.)—The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) and ARCHER at House 88 are honored to announce our official partnership with the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Washington D.C. for Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust, presented at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, January 27, 2026. This partnership reflects a shared commitment to remembrance, historical truth, and the responsibility to confront today’s antisemitism and extremism. By supporting a concert that brings back to life music composed in ghettos and death camps—often written on scraps of paper or preserved only in memory—Poland is helping to ensure that the voices of those murdered in the Holocaust continue to be heard with dignity and clarity. Through this partnership, CEP and ARCHER (Auschwitz Research Center on Hate, Extremism and Radicalization) at House 88, together with Poland reaffirm a shared purpose: to preserve memory, honor the victims of the Holocaust, and ensure that the past continues to speak with moral clarity to the present. Bogdan Klich, Chargé d'affaires a.i. of the Republic of Poland in the U.S. said: “Poland carries a unique responsibility as a guardian of Holocaust memory, because it was on occupied Polish soil that German Nazis built the machinery of terror and extermination. The perpetrators sought not only to destroy lives, but also to erase memory itself—a ‘second killing,’ as Auschwitz survivor Elie Wiesel warned. By partnering in the concert "Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust" on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we reaffirm our commitment to truth, to honoring the victims, and to remembering that even amid total moral collapse, culture and human dignity endured.” Ambassador Mark D. Wallace, CEO, Counter Extremism Project, said: “Music composed in dignity, with resilience and hope, in defiance of the antisemitic genocide of the Shoah will be played on International Holocaust Remembrance Day to remember and to confront the antisemitism of today. We thank the Republic of Poland for its essential partnership and friendship.” Jacek Purski, Director of ARCHER at House 88, added: “These compositions were created in places where human dignity was meant to be destroyed. To perform them today, with the support of partners committed to remembrance and to the fight against antisemitism, is to restore those voices to the place in history they were long denied. As Director of ARCHER in Poland it is a particular honor for me to stand shoulder to shoulder with all those that confront antisemitism and extremism in all its forms.” The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) is a nonprofit and non-partisan international policy organization working to combat the growing threat posed by extremist ideologies.
