Life and work
Aladar Rado first studied under Hans Koessler (composition) at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music since 1904 with fellow students like Bela Bartok and Zoltan Kodaly.[3] He later continued his compositional studies under Leo Weiner. He was awarded the Hungarian State fellowship, the Franz-Liszt-fellowship of Budapest, a Bayreuth fellowship, and the Franz-Joseph-fellowship which allowed him to move to Berlin. There he continued to compose and also worked for the theatres of Max Reinhardt.[4]
In 1914 Aladar Rado was the designated principal conductor of the Reinhard Theatres with a contract starting on 1 September. But in July 1914 the World War I broke out and Aladar Rado enlisted for military service and was sent as a reserve officer to the front line in Serbia. There he was killed in action only a few weeks later.[5]
