Mussorgski, Tchaikovsky, Borodin, and Rachmaninov? It appears ole Adolf was a secret Russophile.

Artur Schnabel

And a Jew too! (Schnabel was one of the greatest classical pianists of the 20th century).

Hellary is into Wagner as well. I heard her favorite is “The Ride of the Valkyries” which she blasts from 5 foot high speakers while running around the room bouncing off walls screaming “power” “power”!

Rachmaninov

I don't find it such a surprise since he liked Wagner so much. The lush melodies and extremely full orchestration of Rocky is why I like him so much. Prokofiev is also a big winner. (I wish more people realized there is much more than just "Peter and the Wolf" in his output.)

I always picture Adolf as being a fan of “Over the Rainbow” by Howard Arlen...

I don`t know, with that limp wrist pose Hitler always did, maybe he was into WHAM!

Artur Schabel is arguably the greatest interpreter of Beethoven as a pianist. I have his complete sonatas on 33rpm records, as well as assorted versions of the sonatas and concertos by other pianists which I had bought earlier.

I think Anthony Burgess was thinking of the contrast between Hitler’s musical tastes and his lack of morality when he wrote “A Clockwork Orange.”
