Ida Gebeschus
Ida Maria Gebeschus (born October 9, 1848 in Pölitz , † May 9, 1903 in Weimar ) was a German music writer and music teacher.
Life
The daughter of Pölitz mayor Albert Erdmann Gebeschus attended the private school in Behrens and later the secondary school for girls in Demmin , where she lived with her relatives for 33 years. She received her scientific education mostly at home, where she also devoted herself to studying music. In addition to a selected house library, the family made long trips every year, on which they could develop their taste for art.
As a music teacher, she worked temporarily in Demmin and Stettin until she settled in Greifswald in 1884 . In addition to books on music history and a collection of Nordic fairy tales and legends, she wrote numerous art-historical essays that were published in magazines. In addition, she corresponded with various musicians and writers of her time. Her manuscripts and her picture were requested during her lifetime for the Loën collection of the Duchess Anna Amalia Library in Weimar.
Ida Gebeschus was a member of the General German Music Association and a German writers' association. She was also an honorary member of the male choir singing association in Demmin.
Because of a heart disease from which she suffered, she committed suicide in 1903 .
