Full biography Siegmund von Hausegger
Siegmund von Hausegger (1872-1948) was an Austrian composer and conductor. He was the son of Friedrich von Hausegger , a lawyer and writer on music who also provided early music education to Siegmund and his siblings. Initially, Siegmund pursued a career in law, but eventually decided to fully dedicate himself to music.
As a composer, Hausegger is best known for his Nature Symphony, a large-scale orchestral work that captures the essence of the natural world. He also wrote a number of other orchestral works, as well as songs and an opera. While his music is not as widely known today as that of some of his contemporaries, such as Gustav Mahler and Richard Strauss, it has been praised for its beauty, power, and emotional depth.
In addition to his work as a composer, Hausegger was also a respected conductor. He held positions at several prestigious orchestras throughout his career, including the Munich Philharmonic and the Vienna State Opera. He was known for his expressive interpretations of Romantic and early 20th century repertoire, and was highly regarded by his peers and audiences alike.
Today, Hausegger's music continues to be performed and recorded by orchestras around the world. While he may not be as well-known as some of his contemporaries, his music remains a testament to his skill as a composer and his deep appreciation for the beauty of the natural world.
