Francisco Dean is a trained jazz musician and music educator at the University of Chicago Lab School. Francisco composed a piece for his school's electronic music ensemble for the Jewish Student Association's Holocaust Remembrance event. Every sound was created with samples from Holocaust artifacts from the Illinois Holocaust Museum.  In my opinion, this is one of the finest examples of using modern electronic music production techniques in an educational setting. Dean's students became deeply connected to the victims and events of the Holocaust, on a level rarely reached in traditional education.  Francisco shared the depth of thought that went into the project, the obstacles faced along the way, and his creative strategies to translate Holocaust artifacts into music.

The Art of Storytelling Through Music with Francisco Dean, Pt. 2

"As the Spring, Unconquered" In this episode we introduce you to Francisco Dean, a musician, educator and podcast producer. Francisco shares with us how he brought to life the memories of Holocaust victims by using their own words, combining them with the art of sound design, to form a powerful composition entitled "Frilingdik Umbazigt - As the Spring, Unconquered". The composition was performed live by the students at the University of Chicago Lab School using sounds captured from artifacts in the archives of the Illinois Holocaust Museum &amp; Education Center in Skokie, Illinois. It is a moving piece that captures the pain, hope and struggles of Jewish people, young and old, at Auschwitz. Told in 2 parts, this is an episode you don't want to miss. We are so fortunate to have a behind the scenes look at Francisco's creative process.
