The I Never Saw Annen Butterfly project debuted in early 2020 as a self-released album, commemorating Auschwitz’s 75th anniversary with a world premiere in January 2020. The work draws from poets connected to the Theresienstadt camp (1942–44), including Pavel Friedmann, Franta Bass, and Alena Synkova-Munkova, and dramatizes their words through a contemporary jazz lens. The album received notable recognition, including a 2020 Best New Release honor from All About Jazz.

While 2025–2026 nationwide theatre productions have used the title I Never Saw Another Butterfly, those performances are separate from Dana Sandler’s ongoing work with the Butterfly Ensemble.
