MUSIC AND MORALITY: “Particularly protected” – a contribution to the history of Nazi patronage over German music

Journal Title: Miscellanea Anthropologica et Sociologica - Year 2015, Vol 16, Issue 3

Abstract

The paper describes the process of the development of Nazi policy towards the artisticcircles related to music. The growth of the Third Reich and the rising power of the German army was accompanied with the protection of the artists who were directly supportingNazism or who were considered important for the German culture, as manifested in theso-called prevention lists. Certain artists particularly favored by the Nazi establishmenttried to hide that stage of their activity. One of them was the conductor Karl August Böhm(1894–1981) whose carrier, started under the Nazi auspices, continued successfully afterthe Second World War. The paper presents the most important of those people whomAdolf Hitler considered “chosen by God” and having a special mission to support theThird Reich.
