    1945 wurde die SS von den Alliierten verboten und aufgelöst. Damit endete aber nicht die Geschichte dieser verbrecherischen Organisation. Vielmehr war bereits zu diesem Zeitpunkt die Auseinandersetzung über die Bedeutung, Verantwortung und Wirkung der SS und ihrer Mitglieder in vollem Gange - eine Auseinandersetzung, die bis heute andauert. Kollektivschuldvorwürfe standen gegen die Versuche von SS-Gliederungen, sich im Nachhinein von der Gesamtorganisation zu distanzieren. In Illustrierten und Spielfilmen lebte das Narrativ vom teuflischen SS-Offizier auf und verwandelte die SS medial in eine exklusive Geheimorganisation. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes analysieren die Strafverfolgung der SS nach 1945, die personellen Seilschaften und politischen Kontinuitäten, aber ebenso die vielfältige Dimension einer nach wie vor virulenten Erinnerungskultur an die SS in Europa. The SS was forbidden and dissolved in 1945 by the allies. However, the history of this criminal organisation did not end. Moreover, at this point a debate on the significance, responsibility and effect of the SS and its members was taking place - a debate that lasts until today. Allegations of collective guilt were standing against the efforts of SS groups to distance themselves from the whole organisation. The narrative of the devilish SS officer came to live in magazines and films and turned the SS into an exclusive secret organisation in the media. The contributions in this volume analyse the prosecution of the SS after 1945, the personal coteries and political continuities as well as the different dimensions of a still virulent culture of remembrance of the SS in Europe.

    Nectaire, the old gardener (a fallen angel) from the novel 'The Revolt of the Angels' by Anatole France, plays the flute for his guests. He improvises so beautiful musical nature descriptions that even the animals come and listen to him. This scene inspired Charles Koechlin to write a three-volume cycle of 96 pieces for solo flute. The 77-year-old composer wrote this collection on the suggestion of the flutist Jean Merry. This CD contains volume 2 with the subtitle 'In the antique forest'. Charles Koechlin was born of Alsatian parentage in Paris in 1867. He gained his first musical impressions from his sister's piano playing. At an older age, he was deeply impressed by various musical works, so by Bach's 'Pfingstkantate'. Due to bad health, he had to abandon his studies in natural sciences at the Ecole Polytechnique in Paris. In 1890, he joined the composition class of Jules Massenet at the Paris Conservatoire. Further teachers were André Gédalge and Gabriel Fauré, whose incidental music to Maeterlincks 'Pelléas et Mélisande' was arranged for orchestra by Koechlin. He also met Claude Debussy and orchestrated his ballet 'Khamma'. When teaching classes himself, the composers Francis Poulenc and Darius Milhaud were among his students. All his life, he was very interested in numerous areas beyond music, such as literature, philosophy, astronomy, mathematics, cinema and travelling. These areas influenced his vast composition oeuvres. His works, however, hardly attracted interest during his lifetime, as he avoided coteries and salons which would have boosted his career, but preferred to keep his independence. Charles Koechlin died at the age of 83 years in his house in Le Canadel (Southern France) on New Year's Eve in 1950. Flutist Hans Balmer was born in Berne, Switzerland, in 1964. After passing the university-entrance diploma (matura), he attended the Conservatory there as a student of Christian Studler and was awarded the performance certificate 'with distinction' in 1990. He attended masterclasses by Aurèle Nicolet, Renate Greiss, Harrie Starreveld and Felix Renggli, amongst others. He received important musical influences from Siegfried Palm, Jörg Ewald Dähler and many more. The Bernese composer and pianist Urs Peter Schneider drew his attention to Charles Koechlin and since then, he is dealing intensively with his music. He gives concerts at home and abroad, does radio recordings with contemporary music and teaches at a music school in the Bernese Oberland.
