Composer and bandleader of Jewish descent. After the "Anschluss" in 1938 he fled from the Nazis to France. In November 1943 he was deported from the Drancy internment camp to Auschwitz-Birkenau, where he died early in January 1945, before the liberation of the camp. One of his most famous compositions is the popular "Was machst du mit dem Knie, lieber Hans".
