Oskar Rieding (Composer)

Born: 1840, Germany

Died: 1918, Celje, Slovenia

Nationality: German

Oskar Rieding was a German violinist, teacher of music, and composer.

Oskar Rieding's greatest claim to fame lies in his contribution to Hungarian music, and in particular, the musical life of Budapest. He attended first the recently founded Academy of Musical Arts in Berlin, and later the Leipzig Conservatory. At the end of the 1860s he moved to Vienna, but in 1871 the conductor Hans Richter, at that time Musical Director of the National Opera House in Pest, appointed Rieding concertmaster. He remained there for thirty-two years, during which time he composed some violin concertos and many pieces for violin and piano.
