Kurt Schindler

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kurt Schindler (17 February 1882 – 16 November 1935) was a German-born American composer and conductor. He came to the United States in 1905 to serve as an assistant conductor at the Metropolitan Opera, and founded the MacDowell Chorus. Much of his choral output consisted of folksong arrangements, though he composed original pieces as well.

Folk Music and Poetry of Spain and Portugal/Música Y Poesía Popular De España Y Portugal by Kurt Schindler was published by the New York Hispanic Institute in the U. S in 1941.
