Miklós Rózsa Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Miklós Rózsa (Hungarian: [ˈmikloːʃ ˈroːʒɒ]; 18 April 1907 – 27 July 1995) was a Hungarian-born composer trained in Germany (1925–1931), and active in France (1931–1935), England (1935–1940), and the United States (1940–1995), with extensive sojourns in Italy from 1953. Best known for his nearly one hundred film scores, he nevertheless maintained a steadfast allegiance to absolute concert music throughout what he called his "double life."Rózsa achieved early success in Europe with his orchestral Theme, Variations, and Finale (Op. 13) of 1933 and became prominent in the film industry from such early scores as The Four Feathers (1939) and The Thief of Bagdad (1940). The latter project brought him to America when production was transferred from wartime Britain, and Rózsa remained in the United States, becoming an American citizen in 1946. His notable Hollywood career earned him considerable fame, including Academy Awards for Spellbound (1945), A Double Life (1947), and Ben-Hur (1959), while his concert works were championed by such major artists as Jascha Heifetz, Gregor Piatigorsky, and János Starker.

# | Quote |
---|---|
1 | Rosza never spoke an ungrateful word about the climate for composing in Hollywood, but he "never went near the studio except when it was absolutely necessary". |
2 | Rosza considered his score for Spellbound (1945) one of his best, but "Alfred Hitchcock didn't like the music - said it got in the way of his direction. I never saw him since." |
# | Fact |
---|---|
1 | The "neurotic waltz" theme Rosza composed for "Madame Bovary" (1949) was composed in advance of the film's starting production, an unusual practice in the Hollywood of the late 40s. |
2 | A "Miklos Rozsa Day" was declared by Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley on the occasion of the composer's 80th birthday accompanied by a recital of his 'Toccata Capricciosa" (Zwritten in 1977.) Rozsa received congratulatory messages from President and Mrs. Reagan, English PM Margaret Thatcher, Queen Elizabeth, Pope John Paul II, and the Hungarian ambassador. |
3 | Rozsa was honored on his 80th birthday in 1987 by ASCAP with the Golden Soundtrack Award. |
4 | Miklos Rozsa was nominated for his scores for both "Spellbound" and "The Lost Weekend" the same year. A theremin was used in both scores. "Spellbound"'s producer David O. Selznick threatened legal action against the use of the instrument in "The Lost Weekend" until it was pointed out that the mere use of a particular instrument could not be copyrighted. "Spellbound" won the Oscar although Rozsa considered "Weekend" the stronger score. |
5 | Wilder's first choice as composer for "Five Graves to Cairo" was Franz Waxman, but Warner Bros. would not release him. Wilder was happy with Rozsa's score but Paramount Music Department boss Victor Young did not, but Wilder ultimately prevailed. |
6 | Graduated Cum Laude from the Leipzig Conservatory in 1929. |
7 | In Hollywood, Rozsa worked under contract at United Artists (for Korda, 1938-42), Paramount (1943-44), Universal (1946-48) and MGM (1949-57). |
8 | After using a theremin in "The Lost Weekend," "Spellbound" (for which he won an Oscar), and "The Red House," Rozsa abandoned it, fearing it might stereotype him. |
9 | His father wanted him to study chemistry. When it came time for young Miklos to go off to Liepzig, they reached a compromise: if he would study chemistry, he could also study music. |
10 | Biography in: "American National Biography". Supplement 1, pp. 532-534. New York: Oxford University Press, 2002. |
11 | His Violin Concerto No. 2, written in 1956 for Jascha Heifetz and recorded that year for RCA Victor, was used as source material for the film The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes (1970). |
12 | His address in the 1990s was 2936 Montcalm Avenue, Los Angeles, California. |
13 | His Violin Concerto No. 2, written in 1956 for Jascha Heifetz and recorded that year for RCA Victor, was used as source material for the 1970 film The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes |
14 | The Dragnet "dum de dum dum" theme was previously used by Rozsa in his score for "The Killers" (1946). It can be prominently found in the resturant shootout scene toward the end of the film. |
