The Fate and Works of Rudolf Karel during World War II
Jan Charypar
Rudolf Karel was one of the composers who were interned in Terezín during World War II. He did not belong among those whose origin was Jewish; the cause of his arrest was his activity in the anti-Nazi resistance. Therefore, he was not held in the ghetto and then deported to an extermination camp, but in the Small Fortress where he died in 1945.
