Most German of the Arts : Musicology and Society from the Weimar Republic to the End of Hitler`s Reich

Editorial Reviews
The New York Times, James R. Oestreich
...an illuminating book ... Until recently, general readers had access to remarkably few sources of solid information on the musical history of the Third Reich. All of that has changed drastically, thanks first to Michael Kater ... and now to Ms. Potter.

Book Description
Why did some of Germany`s most prominent musicologists support with such fervor the ideological aims of the Nazis? In this important book Pamela M. Potter investigates the role musical scholars played in buttressing Nazi institutions and ideology. She argues convincingly that many of the ideas that served Hitler`s regime predated his rise to power and continue to influence conceptions of music history today.
