Dakota Midday: SD Chorale Plays Music of Marcel Tyberg

Composer Marcel Tyberg was killed in Auschwitz during the Holocaust. The South Dakota Chorale will perform two lost Masses by Tyberg, the first time they have been stage since Marcel played them himself.

SD Chorale Artistic Director Brian Schmidt shares Tyberg's story and discusses the composer, his legacy, and the concert he played for friends, just days before the Gestapo captured him in a night raid.

Lori Walsh is the host and senior producer of In the Moment.
