ernest levy the youngest of eight was born into a strong orthodox family and achieved his bar mitzvah as nazism reached into czechoslovakia and expelled jews of hungarian origin back across the border . from there his story takes us through the war years via auschwitz to the labor camps from where as the russians closed in inmates were force marched to belsen . ernest survived belsen and typhoid to choose repatriation . finding himself back in budapest a crisis of faith brought on by the hideous experiences of his teens led him to flirt with communism . a revived faith and a passion for music won the day and established his future . since finding a home in scotland in the early 1960s he has been able to educate and enlighten the young people around him of events which otherwise would only be remote in a history book .
