Sula Levitsch

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sula Lewitsch (* around 1900, † after 1930) was a German pianist and (film) composer.

Live and act

Lewitsch played in the dance orchestra of Dajos Béla in the late 1920s , on whose recordings for Odeon she participated. In the field of jazz she was involved in 13 recording sessions in 1929/30. As a musician she worked around 1930 under the conductor Ernst Römer ; As a musician and composer, she was responsible for the soundtrack for the sound films Der rejüngte Adolar (1931, directed by Georg Jacoby ) and Wehe when he let go (1932, directed by Martin Frič and Carl Lamac ). Lewitsch also wrote the song "Der findes ikke en som du" (text: Alfred Holck).

Nothing is known about her later life, especially after the National Socialists came to power . It is possible that Sula Lewitsch is identical to the pianist Sula Levitch, who has been working in the USA since the 1940s.
