  Floridian: 2 Composers: Ernst von Dohnanyi
Composer and pianist Ernst von Dohnanyi is not exactly a household name, but a lot of his music has a secure place in the standard repertoire.
Though Dohnanyi is joined with Bartok and Kodaly in a triumvirate of Hungary's most important 20th century composers, he wrote music that is quite different from that of his contemporaries.
His son, Hans von Dohnanyi -- father of Christoph von Dohnanyi, music director of the Cleveland Orchestra -- was executed by the Nazis.

 The Music Chamber - Ernst von Dohnányi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Ernst von Dohnányi was born in Poszony in 1877 and decided for further musical study in Budapest rather than in Vienna, setting an example that was followed by his younger contemporary Béla Bartók.
He played a leading part in forming the musical culture of Hungary and Bartók would go on to enhance that even further, although there were difficulties with the régime that replaced the first republican government of the country.
Although there is much in the music of Dohnányi to give pleasure, he is probably still best known abroad for his Variations on a Nursery Theme which was written for piano and orchestra.

He was only 13 and living with his family in Berlin when his father, Hans von Dohnányi, a leading German attorney, and three other family members, including the noted theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer, were arrested by the Nazis for their roles in the anti-Hitler resistance.
Because the SS was guarding the family residence where Christoph and his sister Barbara were living, escape would have been impossible, even if their father had managed to be smuggled out of the clinic.
Hans von Dohnányi, Bonhoeffer and the three other family members were executed on the same day, April 9, 1945, in separate concentration camps.
