"Suddenly hearing the sounds of the violin from the skilled hands of the amazing Agam Berger – it was an emotional moment, as the violin came back to life." Tzachi Beck shares his experience hearing released hostage Agam Berger play an 130-year-old Czech violin which survived the Holocaust.

Mr. Beck, who refurbished the instrument, shared that Agam intends to "play and practice on the violin and take it to the March of the Living, where she will play it. That will be a true full circle moment."
