While Schoenberg was certainly not a Nazi, in the beginning of his career he did not have liberal views at all. He was a German nationalist and a virulent one at that. Upon the outbreak of WW1 he said "We will now enslave those dilettante French Ravel and Stravinsky in chains, teach them awe of the German spirit and force them to worship the German God." Charming.
Just a lot of noise. I don't need holocausts in music, or Stalins or Hitlers either. There were vandals at work. Stravinsky was the chief. Hartmann was an innocent. Of course there were some good Nazi composers (Schoenberg). That is interesting. Amadeus was a name to conjure with. But of course he didn't choose the name for himself. I'm getting used to the music now. Have to learn his language.
Amazing!
Brilliant!
Superbe!

Lol, Schoenberg was a Austrian Jew, His music was considered as "Degenerated Art" by the Nazi regime. He was certainly not a Nazi.
