Basically, Jazz Music is "Negroid" music, Hitler banned all music composed by Jews, Black people or even anything that was too experimental, as we know he was very racist and anti semetic and used propoganda to prevent Germany being influences by anything non aryan. In 1938 he held the exhibition of degenerate music, to condemn Jazz music further. The German classical musician Mendelssohn was prohibited because he was Jewish. Hitler prefered Germany to listen to romantic German Classical Music, to encourage nostalgia and preserve old traditions. Wagner and Strauss were his personal favourites.
The Nazis considered it to be "entartete", meaning "degenerate" in German.
Jazz and swing were thought to be lowbrow and not worthy of a supposedly superior civilization, but what offended the Nazis sense of "purity" was that the styles developed in the black community and had been taken up by many Jewish performers as well. Jazz venues were some of the few places in America where people of all races and faiths came together to enjoy themselves with far less prejudice than existed in the rest of society. That kind of equality was utterly antithetical to the Nazis' views of racial, religious, and social separation.
Despite being officially banned, many civilian Germans secretly listened to jazz. See the excellent movie "Swing Kids" for an interesting view of how young Germans rebelled through jazz.
Because hitler was against it, so they had to be too, a group of kids (aged 14-17) made a group called the swing kids, and were known because the more they were told they couldn't listen to jazz and Swing Music the more they did Hope this helps :-)
Mainly because it was considered to have originated with black people in the American South. Hitler considered Africans to be inferior to Germans, so jazz was inferior too. He preferred that German people listen to what he considered proper German music.
He believed it could influence his people.
The Nazi considered Jazz to be a decadent black American music genre.
Contrary to popular belief, Nazis don't hate anyone. Hitler was just a bad egg. The Nazis are really friendly.
Sent them to a concentration camp and killed them
They hated Jews, and the communists
To make no jews in the world, and hitler hated them because they were smart and brave, etc.
The movie Swing Kids is about a group of close knit kids in Nazi Germany who love swing music and dancing. The director put the Nazis as buffoons or clowns as a way to add comedy to the movie.
