About Egon Wellesz
Egon Joseph Wellesz (October 21, 1885 – November 9, 1974) Austrian composer, teacher and musicologist, pupil of Arnold Schoenberg and student of Byzantine music. Left Austria for England in the wake of the Anschluss — more specifically, as noted in a review of the recent recording of songs and orchestral works on the Capriccio label — probably quoting their program notes — was in the Netherlands at the time by good fortune. Wrote nine symphonies and an equal number of string quartets
