Damijan Guštin Raba in zloraba glasbe v nacistični Nemčiji Diplomsko delo Ljubljana, 2009 Zahvala docentu dr. Damijanu Guštinu za vso potrpežljivost in kolegijalnost, Tomažu za zametek ideje, docentu Dušanu Bavdku za pomoč pri izbiri glasbenih primerov, družini za podporo in potrpežljivost in Miri za vso tehnično pomoč. Raba in zloraba glasbe v nacistični Nemčiji Nacionalsocialistična stranka je v Nemčiji v tridesetih letih vzpostavila diktaturo in s tem demokratično Weimarsko Nemčijo preoblikovala v totalitarni Tretji rajh. S svojo antisemitsko ideologijo ni zaznamovala le nemškega družbeno-političnega in gospodarskega življenja, temveč je proces germanizacije vpeljala tudi v tako eminentno družbeno področje, kot je umetnost, pod njegovim pritiskom pa se je nemško glasbeno življenje drastično spremenilo. Glasba se je razdelila na degenerirano – nesprejemljivo in nedegenerirano – sprejemljivo. Na povsem enak način je nacistični režim razdelil tudi njene poustvarjalce. Svoj odnos in pogled na glasbo je vsilil vsem družbenim institucijam – šolskemu sistemu, družini, cerkvi itd. Da bi z njeno pomočjo pri nemškem narodu sprožil razvoj močne nacionalne zavesti, jo je brez pomislekov izrabljal tudi v propagandne namene. V koncentracijskih taboriščih jo je za izvajanje terorja nad svojimi žrtvami pretvoril v enega izmed najhujših in najučinkovitejših dehumanizacijskih orodij. Ključne besede: nacizem, antisemitizem, glasba, propaganda, dehumanizacija. Use and abuse of music in Nazi Germany In the thirties National Socialist German Workers’ Party established dictatorship and with this political action converted the democratic Weimar Republic into totalitarian Third Reich. With its anti-Semitic ideology and germanization process NSDAP heavily influenced political and economical specters of German society and also cultural and artistic life. Consequently German musical life changed drastically. Nazis classified music and its creators as degenerate and non-degenerate – acceptable. Because of existing tendencies toward establishing and injecting powerful nationalistic and patriotic consciousness in German people they used music as a means of propaganda without any prejudice. They also imposed their prospect and relations toward music to all social institutions – school system, church, family, etc. The worse abuse of music was its use in concentration camps, where Nazis used it to torture their victims as one of the most powerful and effective dehumanization instruments. Key words: Nazism, anti-Semitism, music, propaganda, dehumanization.

Herzlich Willkommen zum 5. und letzten Teil unserer Musikstunde zur Wiener Moderne. Mein Name ist Andreas Maurer, schön, dass Sie wieder dabei sind. Wien 1918. Nichts ist nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg wie zuvor. Die Stadt ist erschüttert, Familien zerrissen. Das Jahr beginnt mit Streiks der Arbeiterbewegung. Unweit des Stephansdoms, in der Kärtnerstrasse, reißt ein wütender Mob den Doppeladler von den Wänden der Hoflieferanten. Hunger und Unterernährung, extremer Mangel, Kälte, Krankheiten und Epidemien wie die Spanische Grippe oder die Tuberkulose fordern viele Tote. Vier Hauptprotagonisten der Wiener Moderne - Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Otto Wagner und Kolo Moser – sterben noch im selben Jahr.

  • Arnold Schönberg: Hitlers Kulturbolschewisten
    ANHANG 1 Arnold Schönberg: Hitlers Kulturbolschewisten Der Herr Anstreichermeister - pardon: Gesell äfft nun auch Mussolinis Kunstbanausenturn nach. Der Maurer als Architekt, der Anstreicher als Maler: es wird ein gutes Handwerk sein, dieses Gebäude fascistischer Kunstanschauung. Das Mundwerk übertrifft es allerdings: es ist himmelschreiend. Kein anderer Architekt könnte [esp besser aufreissen, kein anderer Maler ihm höheren Glanz verleihen als die von solchem Mundwerk leben. Vom Mund in die Hand und vom Handwerk das Mundwerk. Himmelschreiend oder nicht: es ist schreiend. Wie ein Maurer, wie ein Tapeziere? die Kunst ansieht! Ja wie sollten sie denn anders, als alle übrigen Maurer, als alle übrigen Tapezierer. Warum sollten sie ander Dinge hassen oder lieben, warum andere Trivialitäten über sie - gut oder böse, lobend oder beschimpfend, denn zum Tadel fehlt ihnen die Vorbildung- sagen als Leute ihres Horizonts. Ich bin kein Cubist, kein Futurist, kein Dadaist. Aber wenn ich gefragt werde warum, so kann ich das haargenau sagen, ohne zu beschimpfen, obwohl der Gegensatz zwischen meinem Können und dem dieser Cubisten, Futuristen, Dadaisten sicherlich zehn mal (wie bescheiden ich bin) größer ist, als der zwischen Hitler und ihnen { H : C F D = (C F D) 10 : Sch } Mit einem Wort (es ist ein Akt meiner Verschwendungssucht, dass ich dieses eine, dieses ernste Wort daran wende); mit einem Wort, also: sie alle unterscheiden sich voneinander und von Hitler und Mussolini nur durch den Stil, von mir aber durch den Gedanken. Wie sich der Hider (oder ist es doch der Rosenberg? - jedenfalls: wie sich der kleine Moritz) den jüdischen Intellektualismus vorstellt! - Vorerst: gegen alle diese Behauptungen bin ich der extremste Gegenbeweis.

  • Framing Pfitzner, Strauss, Schreker, and Schoenberg Cinematically
    Music, Modern Culture, and the Critical Ear: Binns Cozarinsky’s La Guerre d’un seul homme and Musical Categories: (Re)-Framing Pfitzner, Strauss, Schreker, and Schoenberg Cinematically Alexander Binns ‘Inflation music’ (Klemperer on Schreker)1 The framing of music, especially that of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, is bound up not only with the effects of the two World Wars that (dis)figured the period but also with the discourse on musical value and identity within which that music’s reception was cast. When that reception is also associated with the political turbulence of the first part of the twentieth century and its aesthetic and political aftermath, it becomes yet more noteworthy as a testament to how musical reception is a powerfully engaging tool, whose historical effect can be long lived. The ‘wrecking’ of some composers and the ‘elevation’ of others—either as Aryan or ‘advanced’ modernist, as populist or old-fashioned—is a familiar story. Late-romanticism is a victim but, as Peter Franklin has observed: the late-romantic crisis, … like the post–First World War “Opernkrise” that it shadowed, was located in the interwar years, its outcomes terminally threatened, unsupported by factions or followers. Given its often localized, specifically conditioned nature, and the enormity of contemporary world- historical events, this late-romantic crisis was less widely noticed than those mythologized musical-modernist ones supposedly marked by the 1913 premiere of Stravinsky's Le Sacre du Printemps and Schoenberg's Viennese

  • “It Was Never a Nazi Orchestra”: the American Re-Education of The
    “It was never a Nazi Orchestra”: 1 The American Re-education of the Berlin Philharmonic ABBY ANDERTON By the conclusion of World War II, Germany had been reduced to a premodern society. The brutality of the Nazi Regime, in conjunction with the aerial bombing of the Allies, exacted an inconceivable material and human toll.2 Berlin, the former Hauptstadt of the Third Reich, was little more than a crater whose ruins provided an eerie, phantasmagorical landscape through which survivors could wander. But while rubble could be cleared away and cities rebuilt, how would the Allies monitor German cultural reconstruction to ensure there would not be a revival of Nazism? American occupation authorities firmly believed that the Nazis had manipulated German high culture, and especially music, to serve as a propaganda tool. Consequently, the American Military Government made special provisions for the treatment of culture in the postwar era by creating the Information Control Division (ICD), an organization with branches designed to monitor German radio, literature, film, theater, and music. The Americans, more than any other ally, considered the German musical establishment’s relationship to fascism a dangerous problem and designed their cultural re- education programs with this in mind. As Chief of the Theater and Music section, Benno Frank contended even two years after Germany’s surrender: Only a few people outside of Germany were familiar with political leaders like Hess, Ley, Ribbentrop, etc., but artists like Richard Strauss, Gerhard Hauptmann, and Wilhelm Furtwängler were internationally known and recognized. Today it may be said that Hitler’s success in using these prominent cultural figures has decisively contributed to the prestige of the Nazi Regime.3 The American occupiers were well aware of the regime’s former “prestige”.

Auf diesem Symposion und durch die Ende 2007 unter gleichem Titel vom Intendanten der Staatsoperette, Wolfgang Schaller, herausgegebene Dokumentation mit Beiträgen der damaligen Referenten wurde die bis heute nachwirkende vorsätzliche Veränderung und partielle Zerstörung der Operette während der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus dargestellt, dieses Thema hierdurch ins Bewusstsein der Fachwelt gehoben und von den großen deutschen Medien aufgegriffen (Artikel in SZ, Fachzeitschriften und Berichte im Fernsehen). Der Themenkomplex muss allerdings noch weiter gefasst, als in Dresden geschehen, betrachtet werden, um dem Thema vollständig gerecht werden zu können. In einem in der Dresdner Publikation abgebildeten Schreiben des „Reichsdramaturgen“ und Berliner Oberregierungsrates Rainer Schlösser an Reichspropagandaminister Joseph Goebbels berichtete Schlösser 1934: „Bei Machtübernahme war die Lage auf dem Operettenmarkt so, daß achtzig Prozent der Produktionen sowohl musikalisch wie textlich jüdischen Ursprungs war. Zehn Prozent war der Komposition nach arischen, den Librettisten nach aber ebenfalls jüdischen Ursprungs. Die rein arischen Werke dürften zehn Prozent nicht überstiegen haben.

  • The Reconstruction of Post-War West German New Music During the Early Allied Occupation
    The Reconstruction of Post -War West German New Music during the early Allied Occupation (1945 -46), and its Roots in the Weimar Republic and Third Reich (1918 -45) PhD Submission, 2018 Cardiff University Ian Pace Abstract This thesis is an analysis of the development of new music in occupied Germany from the end of World War Two, on 8 May 1945, until the end of 1946, in terms of the creation of institutions for the propagation of new music, in the form of festiva ls, concert series, radio stations, educational institutions and journals focusing on such a field, alongside an investigation into technical and aesthetic aspects of music being composed during this period. I argue that a large number of the key decisions which would affect quite fundamentally the later trajectory of new music in West Germany for some decades were made during this period of a little over eighteen months. I also argue that subsequent developments up to the year 1951, by which time the infra structure was essentially complete, were primarily an extension and expansion of the early period, when many of the key appointments were made, and institutions created. I also consider the role of new music in mainstream programming of orchestras, opera h ouses, chamber music societies, and consider all of these factors in terms of the occupation policies of the three Western powers – the USA, the UK and France. Furthermore, I compare these developments to those which occurred in during the Weimar Republic and the Third Reich, of which I give an overview, and argue as a result that the post -war developments, rather than being radically new, constituted in many ways a continuation and sometimes distillation of what was in place especially in the Weimar years .
