  Despite the apparent incompatibility between Mozart's humanitarian and cosmopolitan outlook and Nazi ideology, the Third Reich tenaciously promoted the great composer's music to further the goals of the fascist regime. This book provides a fresh understanding of how the Nazis shamelessly manipulated Mozart for their own political advantage.
