"Se questo è un uomo" It is considered Primo Levi's masterpiece and one of the most important books on the Holocaust. I see that it has inspired some music compositions

The oratorio Shirat Hayam was composed and orchestrated by Yankela Rotner in 1992. and was produced on Israeli television in April 1994 on the beach in Netanya with the participation of 12 choirs and a youth orchestra
