Opening:

I remember the date only too well, because on that day my entire life changed, shattered by events which were not of our own making. It was the evening of November 27, 1942. Our Gypsy trio was performing as usual at Fukier`s Wine Cellar in Warsaw and the evening seemed to be no different from any previous ones. I was only seventeen at the time, but the details stand out in my mind as vividly as if it happened only yesterday.
