Trivia
Influential composer of music for films, opera and ballet, as well as popular songs. The son of a textile merchant, he was at his peak while under contract to Universum AG (Ufa films) during the 1930's and 40's. Bochmann began his career as a pianist for the Argentinian orchestra of Jose Soler. His first compositions were published by Irving Berlin in 1929. At Ufa from 1933, he wrote numerous themes for motion pictures, often leading his own Tango orchestra. Some of his recordings (for Columbia) feature his most famous discovery, the actress and singer Ilse Werner.
