Wagner’s anti-Semitism perhaps first became apparent in his essay “Das Judenthum in der Musik”.

It has been found that emotions play a role in the accuracy and completeness of memories, especially in eyewitness testimony (Huston, Clifford, Phillips, & Memon, 2013)
“Whenever human beings come together for any reason, music is there,” according to neuroscientist Daniel J Levitin in This Is Your Brain on Music. (Levitin, 2006) Lee et.al.
