A new upcoming documentary, titled Joe’s Violin, will detail how an instrument bought by a Holocaust survivor in postwar Germany made its way to a young girl living in the Bronx, the New York Post reported on Sunday.

The violin’s owner, Joseph Feingold, 92, grew up in Poland in a Jewish family of music enthusiasts.

When the Nazis and Soviets invaded his home country in 1939, 16-year-old Feingold was sentenced to a Siberia war camp for six and a half years. After the war he was freed and fled to Germany with his father, where they reunited with Feingold’s middle brother who had survived the Auschwitz concentration camp. His younger brother and mother died in concentration camps during the war, according to the report.

At a flea market in Frankfurt, where Feingold lived in a displaced-persons camp in 1947 as he waited for passage to the United States, he exchanged a pack of cigarettes for a violin.

“At that time, the only thing that mattered more than dollars was American cigarettes,” he said.

With his violin in tow, he moved to New York the following year and settled on the Upper West Side, later graduating from Columbia University and then working as an architect. About six years ago, his fingers stopped being nimble enough to play the violin. When he heard about a radio charity drive last year, he donated his stowed away instrument, the New York Post reported.

Seventh-grader ­Brianna Perez, 13, was selected to receive the violin in February. She has been playing the instrument since 5 at the Bronx Global Learning Institute for Girls, a charter school where the instrument is mandatory.

“It felt like happiness going through your veins, just a joy feeling,” Perez said about her first time playing a violin. “It makes me feel better. When I’m sad or ­angry, I have something to look forward to — I can play the violin.”

Perez, who lives with her single mother in the Bronx, plans to audition for music high schools next year, according to the New York Post. She said she hopes to become a forensic anthropologist and a violin teacher.

The documentary Joe’s Violin will chronicle the violin’s journey from Feingold to Perez.

The project is the brainchild of TV producer and documentarian Kahane Cooperman who heard on the radio about Feingold donating his violin and wondered who would be its lucky recipient, the New York Post reported.

“I loved that two unlikely people were going to be connected by the violin,” she said.

Feingold and Perez will come face-to-face for the first time next week. Perez said about meeting the Holocaust survivor, “The only thing I’ve been thinking of is just giving him a big hug.”
