Wissen um 11: Zerstörung und Diaspora. Globale Konsequenzen der NS-Verfolgung für die Musikgeschichte

In the organizer's words:

Knowledge at 11: Destruction and Diaspora. Global consequences of Nazi persecution for music history - presentation of the long-term research project "Nazi persecution and music history"

Lecture by Prof. Dr. Friedrich Geiger

The persecution of musicians by the Nazi regime brought many artistic developments in Europe to a halt. Through exile, however, musical expertise also spread worldwide. In many countries of refuge, there were productive interactions with the local musical cultures. After 1945, artistic ideas also found their way back, in some cases greatly transformed by exile. As a result, the long-term consequences of Nazi rule for music, as will be shown in the lecture using selected examples, can best be recognized from a global historical perspective.

This lecture will take place as a face-to-face event.

💡"Wissen um 11", the science matinee in Bremen, in which exciting and current topics from science are presented every Saturday at 11 a.m. in thirty minutes and occasionally filmed and published on our YouTube channel. Free admission.
