Goldschmidt and Zemlinsky, both Jewish composers, were forced to flee Germany with the rise of the Nazi regime. Panufnik composed under a pseudnym during the Nazi occupation of Warsaw, and all his scores were destroyed in 1944. Shostakovich's bleak trio no 2, employing much Jewish melody, is often interpreted as an expression of grief at the treatment of Jews by Stalin or Hitler. Messiaen composed his epic quartet whilst a prisoner-of-war in Germany.
