PROFESSOR CHRISTIAN GERLACH, author of The Extermination of the European Jews, revises the dominant narrative of the Holocaust to explain a phenomenon that was far more complex and far-reaching than has been previously understood.

The music in this episode is from Ida Pinkert's 'Four Songs', played by the Nimrod Ensemble of Berlin as part of the Lebensmelodien project, which seeks to rediscover the lost music of composers affected by the Holocaust (www.lebensmelodien.com).
