About Adolf Waterman

(05/19/1886 - 08/03/1966)
Adolf Waterman

Adolf Waterman studied piano and composition in Rotterdam, Budapest and Berlin. In 1933 he fled Berlin and settled in Paris. From there, he left for the Dutch East Indies in 1940 or 1941 and from there he traveled to Australia. His career as a pianist and composer seems to have come to a standstill. Waterman composed a piano concerto and chamber music.
