Brundibar, Signed by the Illustrator Maurice Sendak
$300.00
Brundibar, story by Tony Kushner with illustrations by Maurice Sendak. This is a beautiful and triumphant story of a brother and sister, Pepicek and Aninku, who “out perform” the local tyrannical organ grinder and raise enough money to save their sick mother. This book is based on a Czech opera of the same name ("Brundibar" is Czech slang for Bumblebee), with a Libretto by Adolf Hoffmeister, set to music by Hans Krasa. Completed in 1938, the opera was preformed fifty-five times by the children of Terezin, the Nazi concentration camp. Krasa, who was Jewish, was also imprisoned in Terezin. He was killed in Auschwitz in 1944. Copies of this book unsigned by the Illustrator, Maurice Sendak are also available in the Children's Books part of this web site.
