> "If your culture brought you to this, of what use was the culture?"

I think this is a temporary sentiment. In my mind Bach and Beethoven are in no way associated with the Nazi regime, for instance.



How about Wagner?


Lenin adored Beethoven's Appassionnata sonata calling it "astonishing, superhuman". I like it too and in no way like Lenin;).


Wagner died in 1883. How about him?


Wagner was associated with USA, because of Apocalypse Now ;)

From my point of view, if you discard artist because of country he was born in, it's only your loss.
