Trümpi, Fritz
The Political Orchestra

The Vienna and Berlin Philharmonics during the Third Reich. Translated by Kenneth Kronenberg.

Making extensive use of archival material, including some discussed here for the very first time, Fritz Trümpi offers new insight into the orchestras' place in the larger political constellation. Richly documented and refreshingly nuanced, 'The Political Orchestra' is a bold exploration of the ties between music and politics under fascism. 327 Seiten mit Abb., gebunden (University of Chicago Press 2016) leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear
