Revision as of 07:38, 7 February 2008 by FordPrefect42 (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Otto Erich Deutsch (September 5, 1883 – November 23, 1967) was a Austrian musicologist. He is best known for his catalogue of the works of Franz Schubert (January 31, 1797 – November 19, 1828) - it is from this that the D numbers used to identify Schubert's pieces are drawn.
He also wrote many articles on Franz Schubert and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and compiled "documentary biographies" (collections of contemporary documents concerning the subject) on Schubert, Mozart and George Frideric Handel.
