Biography

Edit

Hanns Eisler was a Jewish-born German composer. In 1933 the Nazis banned his work, so he escaped from Germany to America. There he wrote the music for several Bertolt Brecht plays (Brecht was one of his best friends). After world war II he settled in East Germany where he wrote songs for the communist party which were performed by Ernst Busch.
