Composer
Franz Léhar
Franz Lehár (30 April 1870 – 24 October 1948) was an Austrian composer. He is mainly known for his operettas of which the most successful and best known is The Merry Widow (Die lustige Witwe).
Lehár was born in the northern part of Komárom, Kingdom of Hungary, Austria-Hungary (now Komárno, Slovakia), the eldest son of an Austrian bandmaster in the Infantry Regiment No. 50 of the Austro-Hungarian Army and a Hungarian woman of German descent. His mother was not able to speak proper German to him and so he was raised mainly with the Hungarian language in his childhood. Later he put a diacritic above the "a" of his fathers name "Lehar" in reference to this.
