Forensic musicologists at the Exilarte Center in Vienna have rescued hundreds of works by composers who were exiled or killed during the Holocaust.
"I kept stumbling across names of other composers who were just as famous as Kurt Weill," Haas says. He points to the Jewish composers who fled Hitler's Europe and found success in Hollywood.
"The more we recorded," says Haas,"the more we suddenly discovered that the music had been, to some extent, also deliberately suppressed after the war — not because the composers were Jewish, but because the music did not represent the kind of post-war, anti-Fascist statement that society felt was crucial in re-educating, you know, publics after the war.
