Nölck, August
German composer August Nölck (b. 9 January 1862 in Lubeck d. 12 December 1928 in Dresden) was a prolific composer, virtuoso cellist, pianist, and teacher. Composing over 250 music pieces Nölck is particularly known for his cello repertoire.
Nölck studied music at the Bernuthsche Konservatorium in Hamburg, Germany, and was part of the Dresden School of cello playing which included Grutzmacher. As professor of cello and piano, Nölck composed over three hundred works that included concertos, waltzes, gavottes, minuets, mazurkas, funeral marches, and composed in the German Romantic style which was prevalent at the time.
Sadly, due to the two World Wars in the twentieth century and political divisions of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, only his works produced in Venezuela have been recovered.
