Above this Diabelli four hand piano work is the word “ Walzer “ written in pencil.
Eric Randol Schönberg, the composer's grandson, maintains a database of Holocaust victims at www.geni.com . He emailed me he that he needed a photo of Margarethe for this database.
I turned to a former colleague, the violist Tina Pelikan, who is a lifelong friend of Margarete's granddaughter Pamela Wilson.
Recently, to my surprise, Pamela Wilson found a collection of beautiful and historic photographs of Margarethe Hammerschlag Ungar. I am very grateful to her for permission to use some of them for this article.
