You forgot the man who started it all, Richard Wagner (Die Juden en
Musica and all that), but may I ask what the point of this search is?

I'm speculating, but if the idea is to shun or shirk (or ban?) the
music of such people, I fail to see the point.  Even I listen to
Wagner on occasion, magnificent pompous pretentious composer that he
was (although I sing along to "Ride of the Valkyries" by singing "Kill
the wabbit!  Kill the wabbit! ...")  If the music is worth listening
to, it's worth listening to.  Frankly, I have no idea why you're interested
in compiling this list, but I just thought I'd comment on this possible
reason that some people use as a means of deciding who (not) to listen to.
End of diatribe.
