Olivier Greif
Born: 3rd January 1950, Paris, France
Died: 13th May 2000, Paris, France
Nationality: French
Olivier Greif was a French composer of Polish-Jewish parentage. His father was an Auschwitz survivor, which led Greif to compose a number of Holocaust-themed works, including Todesfuge and Lettres de Westerbork, a song cycle which uses letters written by Etty Hillesum. From 1976 onward he followed the spiritual path of Hindu teacher Sri Chinmoy.
Greif began composing at the age of 9 and studied at the Paris Conservatoire and the Juilliard School. He is best known for his solo piano music and songs for voice.
