Michael Kater's work probes the relationship of music with society and politics in the Nazi system, 1933-1945. It addresses the question whether the Nazi regime, which utilized music and musicians for the regime's own political purposes, controlled the musicians and the music, or whether these remained in some measure autonomous. A major question answered is: how did the creative genius survive?
