Hoppy T. Frog Posted September 10, 2010 Report Posted September 10, 2010 I have lately been putting in random search words into the Gramophone.net website to see what comes up, especially search words of a historical nature: A search on "Mussolini" brought up a December 1943 column from a British soldier stationed overseas who details his record shopping in Eritrea, of all places (apparently well stocked with Italian opera records). A search for "Hitler" brought up this rather less delightful correspondence from the 1933 Bayreuth Festival... http://www.gramophone.net/Issue/Page/September%201933/47/819915/A+GRAMOPHONIST+AT+BAYREUTH Quote

Larry Kart Posted September 10, 2010 Report Posted September 10, 2010 "It seems that the flight of leading Jews, including the famous producer Max Reinhardt, has by no means left Germany barren. In point of fact, it has given brilliant natives a chance of which they are, I hear, making the best all over the country." You can say that again. Quote
