mrn - no, indeed it isn't a fair comparison.

Khrennikov was a patriot. Copland was a traitor.

Only joking - well, almost only joking. Copland was called before HUAC, after all.

The serious point I was making was that we shouldn't judge whether or not to listen to a composer's music by considering his politics.

Clariknight may want to use Khrennikov's music in his film if it happens to be good music.

He also may want to use it if it happens in some way to be apposite to the action.

I felt that jnk was coming close to implying that one shouldn't use Khrennikov's music, however good or apposite it might be, solely on the grounds that we don't like Khrennikov's politics and/or his morals.
