Wunschkonzert für die Wehrmacht - was the title of a German radio program that was broadcast between 1939 and 1941 during the Nazi era. (But in the songs themselves there is no propaganda of Nazism) This video uses original cassette recordings [tomahawk films, 1998] of songs that were broadcast on the radio. The art in video was generated using AI. (some weird arts, huh). I also would like to do the GIF animation, but I can't do it well. Hope you enjoy the video.

> But in the songs themselves there is no propaganda of Nazism If the essence of Nazism and Fascism is militaristic nationalism, there may be propaganda value in broadcasting marches and patriotic songs, as compared to e.g. swing, jazz and blues: the former are more congruent with the values of a Fascist regime. There may be propaganda value in having a break with the prior (Weimar) culture, concretely by not broadcasting the same kind of music ("we're doing *this* thing, not the previous thing"). Not that you should feel bad for listening to this music. For example, in one of the Indiana Jones movies, the Nazis are maching to Königgrätzer Marsch. It is not taboo in present-day Germany. Not everything gets corrupted or taboo just by being _touched_ by Nazis.
@@jonaskoelker the German people desperately needed a break from the Weimar culture. Weimar culture was distinctly un-German, and was distinctly Jewish.
@@HooDatDonDar No you're literally retarded. This isn't even a controversial statement and is understood as fact by mainstream historians. There are plenty of things I can say that are controversial/arguable, but you're a moron who worships jews.
There was a bar in Long Beach, CA back in the 1970's that was owned by a veteran of the Wehrmacht who used to play German marshal music and serve up Braunschweiger sandwiches. It was called Joe's Jost. It's still around, but under different management. Long Beach was still a Navy town back then. I was too young to go there, but people I worked with used to rave about the place. I imagine this is kind of what it must have sounded like.
Es fühlt sich wie ein Traum an, diese alte Musik von vor fast einem Jahrhundert zu hören, so viel hat sich verändert und es fühlt sich an, als wären es zwei verschiedene Welten ...
Very very true indeed my friend how we have allowed our civilization to degrade so much that it is in such a pitiful pathetic and miserable state which it is in currently. I suppose Hedonism is truly the downfall of Humanity...
Марш в бресте со сталиным тоже согласовали? А еще нападение на северную европу, Францию и блокаду Англии? Построение новой европы? Du bist der neue Führer! Hail!
@@Hermann.n es ist ein Witz über die Unterzeichnung des Vertrags der UdSSR und Deutschlands über "Freundschaft und Grenze " am 28. September 1939, in dem ein Plan zur Teilung Polens vorlag
As an American studying German, this Playlist is SO helpful. I'm gonna have a lot of fun translating these songs over the summer. Thank you so much for posting 🖤❤💛❤🤍💙
Most of them are praising Hitler and his military plans (that all ended up failing lol) and lots of songs about getting together with girls which also made sense because Himmler wanted the German race to pump out as many pale blondies as possible to settle in Poland In hindsight lots of art and music was streamlined to match with the idea of German racial superiority
@@Nico-fv1do Classical music was terrible in the 1920s 1930s and 40s in Germany. There are no outstanding composers with exception to Richard Strauss. Weimar culture destroyed it. Classical music never recovered. With people like arnold schoenberg working towards its annihilation. Serious beautiful music died in the beginning of the 20th century only being held together by remnants of the romantic era
*Ich muss wirklich zugeben, dass diese alte Musik wirklich eine schöne Abwechslung ist und ich fasziniert bin, wie stark sich die Musikszene seit jeher verändert hat. Bitte mehr davon, Gruß aus dem beschaulichen Wien.*
@@stockerdanieladolfyt Servus, 78 + der ganze Fortschritt der in kurzer Zeit passiert ist. Es fühlt sich von daher mehr als 78 Jahre an, was das ganze noch Verrückter macht, wie sehr sich die Dinge verändert haben, trotz dieser eigentlich kurzen Zeit.
I found the best way to listen to this is to relax under a tree overlooking scenery like a field or something during nice weather, and then play this on your phone on low volume without headphones.
that really prompts to imagination, gives your brain some space of creation and replacing for sounds that were not heard well, but the composition's dynamics is clearly understood!
My favorites: 15:11 - Helenenmarsch 01:31:42 - Lili marleen 02:48:01 - Erika (herms niel) 03:41:00 - Schwarzbraun ist die haselnuss 04:26:26 - Fehrbelliner reitermarsch These ones are just majestic, but maybe you could've added Jubelklänge marsch tho :)
Das geht mir auch so, Jg. 1955, w-berliner, nie gedient, habe manchmal das gefühl ,aus einer anderer zeit gefallen zu sein, so warm uns herz wird mir bei der musik, Filmen, Kunst, Architektur, der Zeit vor 1945 ..😢
I cannot find my old comment anymore, but i judt want to say that i love this playlist a lot, since this video was uploaded i've listened to it many times, and i'd like to show appreciation once again.
@@007arek The USSR killed roughly the same if not more people than Germany before the Nazis even took power. The USA put Japanese people in concentration camps. While there weren't any "official" murders in these camps, the USA had the luxury of not having their supply lines destroyed unlike the Germans, which explains why this didn't happen here. The USA also killed 100,000 German civilians with the firebombing of Dresdon, which wasn't even a military target. Nobody cares about these attrocities since they were done by the victors. The victors really do write history, and they also amplify any sort of wrongdoing done by the loser. The loser also gets absolutely no legitimate defense to explain themselves. The Nuremburg trials were nothing more than Soviet Style kangaroo courts which violated all that the USA and Britain stood for with their traditional courts.
Oh ich bin begeistert und bedanke mich als Deutsche. Das ist die Zusammenstellung der schönsten Lieder, die ich bis jetzt gehört habe im ganzen Internet. Vielen herzlichen Dank 1000 Dank weiter so❤❤❤❤
I been learning German for some years that listening to these are just a vibe but helps me learn to translation and help but just these are some of the best master pieces of Germanys musician during the 1930-1940s they had amazing talent
Хоть картинки и нейросеткой нарисованы, но атмосферу дают потрясающую. Ночь, единственное радио - это Wunschkonzert für die Wehrmacht, а тебе ничего не остается, кроме как учиться для поступления в университет. Ты надеешься, что все это тебя не коснется, ведь войны здесь и сейчас нет, но музыка не переставает напоминать тебе о том, что на самом деле происходит и дает очень сильный контраст.
@@Andei_nebogatyy eventually I suppose. Has the west vs communism/east not been a very long war from the initial revolution to now? At this point it is Russia's war to lose. The west will probably lose interest. It may take a decade. But a lot of people will die to move lines on a map. Europe being Europe. I like to think of that cheesy line from the movie Red Dawn, "Someone forgot what war was like." America certainly likes a war... George Washington and Dwight Eisenhower warned of entangling alliances and the military industrial complex greed. Anyways. Good luck wherever you are friend.
German music == Genius..so beautiful, infact almost all of western classical music is either German or Austria based.. anyway thank you for this collection.
There are so many people that leave those hate comments under every video that mentions Deutschland. It is just sad that people do not see Germany as a homeland of best philosophers, musicians and writers, that is how I see Deutschland.
In mehr als vier Stunden Musik sind die Höhepunkte der Darstellung, wenn die Versionen des Liedes „ERIKA“ erklingen, übrigens ein wunderschönes Werk deutscher Kunst
Wunderbares Video! Ich kannte von dieser Lieder nimmer vor. Eine sehr erfrischende Hörungssitzung. Grüße aus Rumänien zu unseren deutschen Kameraden! 🇹🇩
The "around the world" Christmas broadcast from the wartime is a real killer, no dry eye in the room. When they're calling the various frontline areas to sing Stille Nacht together in the end. Skin of goose big time!
Many thanks for this compilation! The special value lies in the unbiased selection. It contains not only the usual military strength supporting marching songs but also hit songs, love songs and home songs of that time. Beautiful! 👌 Herzlichen Dank für diese Zusammenstellung! Der besondere Wert liegt in der unvoreingenommenen Auswahl. Sie enthält nicht nur die üblichen die Wehrkraft stützenden Marschlieder sondern auch Schlager, Liebes- und Heimatlieder dieser Zeit. Wunderschön! 👌
The best way to listen for me is to listen while driving my 1962 vw bug down a secluded highway, surrounded by nothing but trees and the open road. After that wonderful drive, its beer time!
As an reenactor, this is really useful in the free time when i can just play this so it sounds like legit ww2 radio :) creates quite a good atmosphere, fantastic on events. Many thanks!
@@underarmbowlingincidentof1981 First of all.. Its not nazi reenacting, i do it for the historical purpose and secondly we havent had much events lately anyway.
@@underarmbowlingincidentof1981 Untersturmführer is a military rank, and it dosent instatly mean youre a nazi and as I stated before i do this for the historical purpose.
Ausgezeichnet! I listened to this while painting my kitchen. Now, I want to go into all the other apartments and paint theirs. But.... this is simply superb and gets every German hair on the back of my neck to stand to attention.
@46:28 - Gute nacht, mutter (Good Night Mother) "A German mother telephoned the radio station, her heart breaking from the loss of her only son in the Polish campaign. She had sat silently, listening to the names of young soldiers sending greetings and assurances to their mothers that they were fine, the tears running down her cheeks knowing that she would never receive such a comforting greeting from her boy, Walter, whom she had just been informed had been killed in the fighting at Radom in Poland… His comrades had given him a soldiers’ burial with a birch-wood cross adorned with his steel helmet to mark his final resting place and his personal effects & notebook were sent back home to his mother. As she was now listening to the Wunschkonzert, with a Finnish choir singing a song of home, she opened up his notebook… and then rang the radio station: ”I have in my hand the notebook of my dear son and on the last page there are the lyrics to a song which he liked to sing, entitled Good Night Mother. Now he is dead this must be his last greeting to me…” The member of the production staff who took the call went straight into the studio to relay the message to host Heinz Goedecke and the whole team went quiet as they took in the utter sadness of the mother’s request, then bass singer Wilhelm Strienz suddenly said. “I know that song..!” Half an hour later, as the grief-stricken mother sat by the radio listening to the broadcast, along with most of Germany, Heinz Goedecke stepped up to the microphone and quietly related the story of her son’s notebook and his falling in Poland, adding “Walter has died not just for you, but for everyone”… and as the first bars of Erwin Lehnow’s Gute Nacht Mutter’ filled the radio speaker, a radio legend song was born…." Damn that hit really deep. You never hear how the war effected the families of the Axis soldiers. I hoped she got to reunite with her son in the afterlife peacefully, and not suddenly from Allied bombing raids or Soviet reprisals during occupation...
I hardy reply to coments however this is too good. Great story m8 its a bitter but sweet one. Some people forget that the outher side has a home and a family just like you. A reminder that we are all human in the end.
@@medicsmania7435 Except for the fact that the "other side" was involved in one of the most brutal atrocities that has ever graced this planet of ours.
@@aviatorraj7820 So you are glad Walter died then, I'm going to assume so since you so gracefuly removed your humanity like you people say the "other side" did.
@@soportuguese354 Removed my humanity? Do you mean to say you have "humanity" for those who didn't cower while shooting unarmed civilians, including children, who starved and gassed millions of people in torture chambers? You might have forgotten history, or sympathize with fascists, I don't.
Greetings from America my German friend 👋☺️ I've never heard this before and I'm very glad I found this wonderful gem I've liked German marching music for sometime now but these tunes sure are sweet
