See if you can find a book by Michael H. Kater, _The Twisted Muse:
Musicians and Their Music in the Third Reich_ (Oxford U. Press, 1997).
It's currently in print as a trade paperback. I don't find Rosemarie
Gumpert in the index, but Kater gives a lot of specific information about
both the Holocaust perpetrators and their victims.
