Inhalt: Artists needs means so that they can make and perform music. In the countries ruled and occupied by the Nazis, musicians and further cultural actors lost not only instruments during Second World War. They could hardly take anything with them on the way to exile or being deported, from sheet music to music collections or equipment. They had to give up being active in clubs and bars where they hosted music. In particular, little is known about how (many) musicians and live music actors from genres such as klezmer, swing and jazz were affected by expropriation. We approach these questions with the results of provenance research and projects, which, until now, seem to have mainly focused on the literature and visual arts. The seminar moves this research focus toward popular music. Students find the topic for each session in the class plan (Seminarplan)
