Hanns Eisler
At the instigation of Rector Georg Knepler, he became a lecturer in composition and musical composition at the Hochschule für Musik "Hanns Eisler" in 1950 (since 1964 "Hochschule für Musik "Hanns Eisler""). This made him one of the younger teachers at the conservatoire, which was founded in 1950, along with Andre Asriel, Ruth Zechlin, Werner Scholz and Dieter Zechlin.
