Georg Ludvík Telemann

Georg Ludvík Telemann (1838-1890) was an Austro-Lovian musical compser.

Biography
Telemann was born in the village of Barbacs (now Hungary) to Friedrich Telemann and Maria Svoboda. He was noted to have talent in music, but his poor parents could not afford a teacher, but they did encourage him to play music. In 1848 Georg left his hometown due to the tense situation at the time and settled in Carrington Island where he learned under the master Pieter Hausman. There he composed the famous Grijzestad Symphony, a piece which represented the historic battles of Grijzestad. Moving to New York in 1870, he married Jeanette Dumont. Telemann, unable to find good work there, moved to Lovia in 1879. There he would compose many of his famous pieces, including the König Arthur Marsch and the overture Solomon and Sheba (1886). He would have one son with Jeannette, Philip (b. 1880). In 1890 Telemann dies, apparently of syphilis.
