| Musicologist, born in Munich, SE Germany. In 1933 he fled the Nazi régime and went to live in Florence and London. He collaborated in several well-known musical reference books, including Eaglefield's Dictionary of Modern Music, but is perhaps best remembered for his work on Mozart, especially the revision of Köchel's catalogue. He was a cousin of the physicist Albert Einstein. His posthumous Essays on Music were published in 1958. |
