Hans Franco Mendes (1890 - 1951)

Hans Franco Mendes (1890–1951), a pianist, accompanist and composer, was deported with his wife (also a composer) via the Westerbork camp to the Theresienstadt/Terezín concentration camp, but both managed to survive. His piano music, the core of his production, deserves to be rediscovered for its rhythmic richness.
