Music in Germany

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 March 2010

Extract

It can fairly be said that cultural life in Germany, especially where music is concerned, has recovered out of all proportion to material conditions prevailing in the ravaged country. How is it possible, one might ask, for two opera houses to be playing several times a week to packed houses, in the ruins of Berlin? It is interesting to find that the general apathy which is apparent to a greater or lesser degree among the population of all the large towns of Germany has neither prevented the performance of music nor detracted from its enjoyment by the music-loving public.
