Abstract:
Summarizes part of the book "The Inextinguishable Symphony", by Martin Goldsmith (New York, 2000), relating to the subject of Jewish musical life in Nazi Germany. Describes the creation and activities of the Kulturbund deutscher Juden which took over Jewish cultural activities because of the Nazi laws intended, inter alia, to segregate the Jews culturally. Describes, also, the repression of Jewish cultural activities and the eventual destruction of Jewish institutions. Nazi persecution of Jewish culture started in 1933 with the Civil Service Law ("Berufsbeamtengesetz"), which resulted in some 8,000 Jewish artists losing their jobs, and ended with the dissolution by the Nazis of the Kulturbund and the prohibition of any Jewish cultural activity from 1941.
