This book is the first collection of multi-disciplinary research on
the experience of Italian-Jewish musicians and composers in Fascist
Italy. Drawing together seven diverse essays from both established
and emerging scholars across a range of fields, this book examines
multiple aspects of this neglected period of music history,
including the marginalization and expulsion of Jewish musicians and
composers from Italian theatres and conservatories after the
1938-39 Race Laws, and their subsequent exile and persecution.
Using a variety of critical perspectives and innovative
methodological approaches, these essays reconstruct and analyze the
impact that the Italian Race Laws and Fascist Italy's musical
relations with Nazi Germany had on the lives and works of Italian
Jewish composers from 1933 to 1945. These original contributions on
relatively unresearched aspects of historical musicology offer new
insight into the relationship between the Fascist regime and music.
