Rolf Liebermann (September 14, 1910 – January 2, 1999), was a Swiss composer and music administrator. ==Life== Liebermann was born in Zürich, and studied composition and conducting with Hermann Scherchen in Budapest and Vienna in the 1930s, and later with Wladimir Vogel in Basel. His compositional output involved several different musical genres, including chansons, classical, and light music. His classical music often combines myriad styles and techniques, including those drawn from baroque, classical, and twelve-tone music. Liebermann was the director of the Hamburg Staatsoper from 1959 to 1973, and again from 1985 to 1988. During his tenure in Hamburg, he commissioned 24 new operas, including ''The Devils'' by Krzysztof Penderecki, ''Der Prinz von Homburg'' by Hans Werner Henze, and ''Help, Help, the Globolinks!'' by Gian Carlo Menotti. In the intervening years he served as director of the Paris Opera from 1973 to 1980. He died in Paris.〔(Tom Sutcliffe, "Fanfare of the opera" (obituary) ), ''The Guardian'', 14 January 1999〕 At the inaugural Eurovision Song Contest in 1956, Liebermann acted as the president of the jury; being responsible for moderating and finalising the results of the seven international juries judging the competition.〔John Kennedy O'Connor, ''The Eurovision Song Contest—The Official History'' (Carlton Books, 2010).〕 In 1989, he was the head of the jury at the 39th Berlin International Film Festival.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Berlinale: 1989 Juries )〕 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「Rolf Liebermann」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
