Following the collapse of the Wilhelmine Empire in Germany, a new generation of artists found a fresh environment where they might flourish.

Composers, performers, and audiences alike sought to negate their recent past in various ways: by affirming modern technology (electronic or mechanical music, sound recordings, radio, and film), exploring music of a more remote past (principally Baroque music), and celebrating popular music (particularly jazz).
