TMF COMMISSIONS • inspiring new voices • honoring the legacy

"One could easily imagine a worthwhile role for TMF simply in advocating, as it does, for wider recognition of composers like Klein, who were silenced by the Holocaust. And yet TMF’s work has reached far beyond its commemorative and educational mission by bringing new music into the world through active commissioning. It would be hard to overstate the impact of that bold approach for a small organization of its kind, as it brings a generative dimension to the very act of remembering, and opens up TMF to the music of the present and future.”

TMF commissions emerging artists to compose new works honoring the Terezín artists. These new works are published by preeminent houses and performed by major artists in the great stages of the world, from Vienna to Prague to Berlin, New York, and in 2019 in Santiago, Chile.
