This unique compilation consists of precious audio documents, including the radio plays "Saint Joan of the Stockyards" and "The Ocean Flight," as well as the legendary interrogation before the Congressional Committee investigating "un-American activities." Special highlights include historical recordings of Brecht, such as "To Those Born Later," the only poem recorded in his own voice. When Bertolt Brecht sings the Moritat of Mackie Messer from The Threepenny Opera, the song takes on a distinct intensity and urgency. Also featured are Helene Weigel, Fritz Kortner, Therese Giehse, and Carola Neher. This combination of radio play recordings, songs, and Brecht's statements on politics, philosophy, dramas, and productions is a brilliant collection of original sounds for all Brecht fans and those looking to discover him.
