Ernő Dohnányi (1877–1960) was one of the most influential musicians of 20th
century Hungarian music history. As the chairman-conductor he led the
Philharmonic Orchestra for a quarter of a century from 1919; he was the
director of the Academy of Music twice – in 1919 and in 1934–1943; from 1931
he was also the head of the music department of the Hungarian Radio. His
positions required him to perform diverse social functions, including his role
as a member of the Upper House of the Hungarian Parliament. First and
foremost, however, he was one of the greatest pianists and outstanding
composers of his age. Research into his œuvre gained new momentum in the 1990s
thanks to, among others, the author of the present volume, who already became
a devoted researcher of the Dohnányi œuvre when she was still a student of
musicology at the Academy of Music in Budapest.
