Biography

Rudolf Hans Bartsch (born February 11, 1873 in Graz, Styria – died February 7, 1952 in St. Peter in Graz), was an Austrian military officer, and writer.

Life and work

Bartsch wrote novels and short stories, which, according to today's critics often glorify the old nostalgic Austria. Gero von Wilpert ( for a very fertile, non-critical narrator of the old Austria – kind with sentimental novels and short stories, cute and bittersweet love stories of playful levity) ... His novel about Franz Schubert, Schwammerl (mushrooms), one of the most successful Austrian books before World War II, served in 1916 as a template to the operetta Das Dreimäderlhaus by the composer Heinrich Berté, which was also filmed several times.

Bartsch adapted the mythological poem Autumn Chorus to Pan, from ancient works about the god Pan and the seasons. It tells the signs of the cycle of life and the transience of the earth in the sense of the changing seasons. The work gained greater prominence when it was set to music in January 1911 by Joseph Marx, who was, at the time, one of the most played song composers of Austria. It was set as a one-movement cantata for mixed choir, boys' choir, organ and large orchestra. This is the first orchestral work written by Marx. The Autumn Chorus to Pan was recorded in June 2008 by the BBC Symphony Orchestra & Chorus under Jiří Bělohlávek together with other choral works by Joseph Marx for the British label Chandos Records.

Streets were named after him in his hometown of Graz plus in Leibnitz and Mureck.
