You may be thinking of a movie called "Playing for Time" where one concentration camp had an orchestra made up of prisoners, but this was an exception. The main purpose of concentration camps was to round up Jews, as well as other groups deemed "undesirable" by the Nazis, and subject them to forced labor, starvation, torture, medical experiments, and ultimately death. Some were literally worked to death, or tortured by medical experiments till they died, or put in gas chambers.
