[edit] Renaming?

'Associated' seems misleading. As the list is about composers who drew from, or who were repressed by the Holocaust, I suspect a more appropriate name would be 'List of composers influenced by the Holocaust'. Digwuren 08:30, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

I agree. I will move the page. S.dedalus

[edit] OR Concerns

Unless a source clearly says that the said person was influenced by the Holocaust, it should be considered original research Corpx 05:45, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Could you point out an example of such a defective source please? I will be happy to fix any such error. Many sources are based on pieces that a composer has written that are in memory of or otherwise dedicated to the Holocaust. As it says in the description of the list “This is a list of composers who have written music about the Holocaust, or who were directly influenced by the holocaust.” Both of these points can be proved by a reference.

[edit] Jeff Mangum?

I think it would be worth putting him in here. In The Aeroplane Over The Sea talks a lot about Anne Frank, Holland, and World War II. 68.57.23.166 (talk) 00:22, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
