...Just when I thought I got over mentioning Wagner on here every day, this comes from Alex Ross:



"The website Wagner Opera has uploaded to YouTube a scene from the 1941 Nazi propaganda film Stukas, in which a clinically depressed fighter pilot hears Götterdämmerung at Bayreuth, becomes rejuvenated, and merrily goes back to bombing the British."

...No matter how much I love some of the music, just about everything having to do with Wagner creeps me out.


Wagner even makes Stephen Fry creepy...
