Hubert Deutsch (born 3 May 1925) is an Austrian conductor and administrator closely connected to the Vienna State Opera. Deutsch was born in Vienna, only child to Ernst and Maria Deutsch. His father was from Moravia and worked until retirement as an official on the Austrian State Railways. Son of a district judge, he was a quiet scholarly man who held an encyclopaedic knowledge of flowers and plants, passion he transmitted to his son during their walks in the countryside. His mother, Maria Deutsch, born in Vienna, was a most resourceful woman who, at the time of the "Anschluss" persuaded the Nazi authorities to let her husband free after having been taken under custody. At the end of the Second World War, a time of acute shortage of food and resources in Vienna, she managed to get employed at a United States Army base, gaining access to provisions to sustain her family. == Education == After attending elementary school in Vienna, Hubert Deutsch received a classical grammar school education and acquired fluency in English language from an English aunt who lived in an adjacent apartment to that of his family. But he was, above all, an enthusiastic opera follower, often seen with his friends standing in the balcony of the Vienna State Opera. This love for opera was the inspiration that led him to start a music career at the Vienna Academy of Music and Art. Among others, his teachers were: Grete Hinterhofer in pianoforte, Josef Marx in music theory, and Professor Hans Swarowsky in conduction. Soon after obtaining his degree in 1951, Hubert Deutsch was engaged as a conductor and coach by the Landesteater in Linz. At that time, Austria was divided into military zones of occupation. The River Danube was the border between the American and Sovietic zones, with Linz in the American zone and its sister town, Urfahr, in the Sovietic one. As part of a daily routine, Hubert Deutsch, who lived then in Urfahr, had to show his passport at the Sovietic checkpoint on his way to the Landestheater. He lived there for four years, also teaching opera at the Brückner Conservatory in Linz. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hubert Deutsch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
