(Re Adam: Jean Louis Adam might be the composer of the instrumental works by Adam I've seen listed. That explains a bit. Re Röntgen: don't forget, Julius' wife Amanda Röntgen-Maier was also a composer.)

Hrm, when I remember who I reopened this edit window the better to add, I'll open it again. Distractable much Eric...

[Gareth Vaughan]

Very interesting, Giles. You may like to add Raimund (brother to Alexander) Dreyschock (and Felix's father). Raimund studied under Pixis; he was concertmaster of the Leipzig Gewandhaus concerts from 1850-69 and taught at the Leipzig Conservatory. He also composed - though nothing very significant. There is, however, an "Introduction and Allegro" for violin & orchestra (score and parts in Bibliothek der Universität der Künste).

[TerraEpon]

Richard Strauss's father Franz was a horn player who wrote at least a few pieces for horn.

[matesic]

Er...so what?

[Alan Howe]

Well, the Franz-Richard Strauss connection certainly fits here, doesn't it?

[Gareth Vaughan]

Quite.  TerraEpon is just noting that here is another pair of composers closely related: father/son. In fact, Franz was quite a distinguished composer in his own right. IMSLP lists 10 of his compositions, and a number of his works, including his Horn Concerto in C minor, Op. 8, can be heard on YouTube.

[Alan Howe]

You got to the IMSLP connection just before me, Gareth. Quite right!

[Gerhard Griesel]

Congratulations on a remarkable piece of research, Giles! I'm printing the list to look up more unknowns' music on YouTube etc.

[MartinH]

How about brothers Joseph and Joachim Raff?
Brothers Robert and Rudolf Radecke, too.
Louis Moreau Gottschalk was the Great-Uncle of Louis Ferdinand Gottschalk.

[TerraEpon]

Another father/son -- Franz Anton Schubert and his son François Schubert ....no relation to the famous Schubert, whose brother Ferdinand was also apparently a composer.

[Wheesht]

Diederich Krug (1821-1880) and Arnold Krug (1849-1904) - another father/son

[matesic]

My "Er...so what?" was intended to refer to the entire thread. Of course musical talent tends to run in families. Whether this is down to nature or nurture is a moot point but probably unresolvable. What about a list of composers born under a full moon?

[Alan Howe]

My "Er...so what?" was intended to refer to the entire thread.

Well, that was about as clear as mud, I'm afraid.

Of course musical talent tends to run in families.

Yes, but not in all families. That's the point of the thread.

What about a list of composers born under a full moon?

How about Juan Manen, that well-known Spanish-Danish composer? 

[TB]

A few more additions. Firsova and Smirnov (who was born not in 1848, but in 1948) have a daughter called Alissa Firsova (born 1986) who also composes. Krenek is not spelled Kreneck (in the Mahler connection). Julius Röntgen's wife Amanda Maier (1853-1894) also composed. (And Röntgen's mother was the aunt of Julius Klengel.)
