What harmonica master Lee Oskar has produced is a noteworthy, largely instrumental disc he considers his musical memoir, one which has a lot to say about his family’s roots in the Holocaust. This isn’t a dark album per se. It has more of a hope-and-inspiration vibe…The nine-song set builds upon the theme…with a warm and gentle feeling. One song is dedicated to his mother. Another called ‘Liberty’ is an American waltz. There are songs dedicated to children and faraway dreams. The title track is about the Holocaust; another song called ‘World for Peace’ offers hope for a better planet.
