The Nazi Party built up under the leadership of Adolf Hitler, and it quickly started taking total control over Germany during the memorable years of 1933-1945. In 1939, Germany invaded Poland, and occupied cities like Warsaw. The German Nazis were responsible for stealing all human rights the Jews had, as well as slaughtering an unimaginable number of them. Warsaw was one of the primary cities that had a great amount of Jews who suffered these horrific events. They were gathered and packed into small terrific ghettos, where they were horrifically mistreated. “The Pianist” narrates the unbelievable story about an extremely talented musician named Władysław Szpilman, who survived this atrocious phase in global history. His experiences of life were then turned into this spectacular film that accurately portrays Wladyslaw Szpilman’s escape and survival experience.…

Thousands of the stories about the German Nazi’s war atrocities during World War II have followed their Jewish victims into their make shift mass graves to be silenced for eternity. For every Auschwitz that is recorded in the History books, there are hundreds of unknown and untold stories of the horrors performed on unsuspecting and undeserving victims, whose voices were erased from ever pointing blame or ever being heard. For a lucky few, even though the word lucky might be challenged, they averted death at the hands of the Nazis. These few went on to be living documents of the senseless and brutal nature of the treatment of Jews in German occupied territory during World War II. In the movie The Pianist, one such victim’s story is told, Wladyslaw Szpilman, a well-known Polish composer of the time, lived to write about his experiences in the Warsaw ghetto and the persecution of the Jews at the violent hands of the Nazi Germans. Director Roman Polanski, a Jewish ghetto camp survivor himself, takes Szpilman’s tragic story and displays it on the screen in a way that shows the desperate and helpless plight of the Jews against the tyrannical and unwavering brutal hands of the Nazi soldiers.…
That gave me the immediate of answer that even if they could barely provide clothing for the soldiers, the clothes still barely even worked to call them “clothes.” When I go out, I hear the general shouting to the soldiers and I that there is no more meat. This is really bad because we may starve to death because of the no meat. We have such low supplies that we have run out of meat already. When I look at the scenery, it shows soldiers scattered and some with very few clothes on.…
In the 1700’s the piano was invented by Bartolomeo Cristofori in Florence, Italy first introduced to the world as the "pianoforte" meaning “Soft loud”. “In the last quarter of the 18th century the piano had become the leading instrument of the western art of music that still lives on till today as an exotic instrument played by talented people in the world.” (Wendy Powers, 2003) Music has lived on from the beginning of time by all cultures and races for decades. Music is known to make the heart, soul, and brain one. Without this invention Beethoven would have not made the music that lives on till today and many other talented famous throughout the world.

The Piano Lesson, written by August Wilson and directed by Lou Bellamy is placed in the 1930’s and is about an African American family haunted by American slavery. The play mainly focuses on a piano that has been in this African American family for decades. The piano represents strength and courage. During the production not every single scene and line in the playwright was included in the production. It was not actually needed because the actors were really able to get the meaning across through other aspects. It is his escape from the burden of having to work for someone else. Although he does want to make something of himself, it does not mean he has good or bad intentions. To Bernice the piano holds the will of her family. To some characters in the play particularly one, Boy Willie the piano represents his key to freedom. Although he does want to make something of himself, it does not mean he has just good or just bad intentions.…
