Valutazione di JohnHatt8
This is certainly not a normal documentary, nor is it merely a collection of songs. It presents a good sense of Joe Heaney's life by re-enacting parts of his life with a little documentary footage. I would have preferred a bit of narration to clarify what was happening and more of the enjoyable old Irish songs. However, I found the odd background music annoying.
Born in Vienna, Dr. Zipper was a conductor, music educator, and composer who worked in Europe, the United States, and Asia. He may well be unique as he was in both German (Dachau and Buchenwald) and Japanese (Philippine) concentration camps in World War II. At the time this short documentary was made (1995) he was in his nineties and still teaching in Los Angeles. This short film (40 minutes) has clips of his then-current teaching and conducting.
Terry Sanders, the writer and director, did an admirable job presenting Dr. Zipper's interesting life story. However, I would have liked to have had a complete performance of the "Dachau Song" which Zipper composed while interred there. I also would have enjoyed an interview with Dr. Zipper about his concentration camp experiences.
"Never Give Up" is a documentary worth viewing by anyone interested in World War II, music education, or biographies of those who overcome adversity.
