Abstract:
Examines the place of Jews in Western musical culture. States that the myth about being Jewish as an incomprehensible mental construct that leads to creative antagonism was answered in the early twentieth century by myths about music of necessity leading to other forms of creativity (e.g. in the case of Einstein). Includes references to antisemitism.
