OK.,music has no ideology ? yes it has and in some moments it can elevate tempers,and cause blodletting, as history has registered one or two cases. But letīs say music is beauty and culture, but in this case it would make an Hommage(french word is more to the point) to a man who had a sick mind, just like hitler had and so many others an others,and we have still a lots of them in some governments.He made beautifull music, but if had been in Hitlerīs place he would have done the same.Sorry not to agree, but somebody has to show the other side of beauty from certain composers.
