Re[2]: Jewish Classical Composers

Did anyone mention Irving Berlin?  There's an an entire book about Jews on 
Tin Pan Alley.. (von Tilzers, etc.), Sholom Secunda,

Did conductor Otto Klemperer compose, too?  H econducted the Viennese 
symphony prior to the Nazi's.

I'm not sure, weren't Gustave and Fritz Mahler Jewish?

And how about Jewish librettists and lyricists? Oscar Hammerstein?  I 
believe that one of Mozart's librettists (da Ponte, perhpas?) was Jewish.

If you want to make a list of Jewish composers, create one of Jewish Rock and 
Roll, R & B, and pop composeres.  If you do , better have a lot of paper 
handy
