Richard Fuchs (), composer and architect, was born in Karlsruhe, Baden, Germany, on 26 April 1887 and died in Wellington, New Zealand, on 22 September 1947. The football player Gottfried Fuchs was his younger brother. ==Life== Fuchs was active in the Jüdischer Kulturbund Baden and President of the B'nai B'rith Lodge in Karlsruhe in the 1930s. He designed the Gernsbach Synagogue - destroyed in Kristallnacht - among other buildings, few of which survive. He spent some weeks in Dachau concentration camp before his application to emigrate to New Zealand was accepted, and he did so via England, arriving on 17 April 1939, bringing with him a selection of his compositions, listed below. In Wellington he worked as an architect with Natusch and Sons, then the Housing Department, continued to compose and took an active part in the Wellington music scene. But whereas in Germany he was persecuted as a Jew, in New Zealand he was shunned as a German. He wrote further chamber music, another string quartet and a piano quintet, songs, including ''A New Zealand Christmas'' to the words of Eileen Duggan, which was sung for the Queen during her 1953 visit to Rotorua by a Maori girls' choir, and in a Broadcast to Schools by T. J. ("Tommy") Young's children's choir.
