Franz Liszts "Les Preludes"
Richard Wagner (1818-1883) was Hitler's favorite composer. During World War I, it is reported, he carried Wagner's music from Tristanin his knapsack. Often Hitler had Wagner's music performed at party rallies and functions. Wagner's music was uncompromisingly serious, and intensely Teutonic. It was not only Wagner's music that 'struck a chord' with Hitler, but also his political views. Wagner wrote a violently antisemitic booklet in the 1850s called Das Judebthum in die Musik (Judaism in Music) insisting the Jews poisoned public taste in the arts. He founded the Bayreuth festival, which in the 1930s and 1940s was used by the Nazi party as a propaganda tool against the Jews. I took this from fcit.usf.edu/HOLOCAUST/arts/musReich.htm
Wagner's operas are called "music drama" or "Gesamtkunstwerk" in German because of synthesis of different kinds of arts in it. Wagner used this term in 1849 in the meaning of an operatic performance encompassing music, theater, and the visual arts.
