A message to the children. by Miriam Halahmy published on 2011-11-28T12:04:52Z This song is about Janusz Korczak, Orphanage Director, Warsaw Ghetto and reflects his thoughts the night before the orphanage was liquidated by the Nazis. I visited the orphanage in 2003 and was so moved I wrote the poem. The poem was set to music by Helen Bonney, author and composer, in 2011 and performed on this track by Jack Cooke. I am deeply moved that Helen and Jack have produced such a marvellous tribute to my poem, this incredible man and his work. Helen was so inspired by Janus Korczak that she has gone on to write a musical, Always a Rainbow and is currently seeking partners for prodction.
