The Jewish conductor Bruno Walter was listed as a non-Jewish
musician that left Nazi Germany for political reasons, from
BBC Music Magazine, February issue page 39 "the escapees".
What a relief! But not for Jewish collectors, who will have
to decide whether to throw out their Walter recordings, so
the box sets might come up cheap used, the ones that aren't
ceremonially burned.
The article was typical hand-wringing about the conductor
Furtwangler, trying to calculate what percentage of evil
and how much he is pro-Jewish, since Jewish politics are
considered to be the only thing important in music.
