OREL Foundation Launches Website Dedicated to Revival of Composers' Music Once Banned by the Nazis

Mar. 03, 2009

Last month the OREL Foundation, spearheaded by the leadership of James Conlon, launched its new website devoted to 20th-century composers whose music was banned during the years of Nazi oppression in Europe. The website, www.orelfoundation.org, provides biographical, bibliographical and media-related material, a calendar of performances of their works, a discussion forum, and links to other valuable resources on these composers whose careers were destroyed or severely interrupted during the years leading up to and including World War II. Among the composers to whom the OREL Foundation is dedicated are Karl Amadeus Hartmann, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Viktor Ullmann, Hanns Eisler, Ernst Krenek, Bohuslav Martinů, Franz Schreker, and Alexander Zemlinsky.
