Fictional German composer of the symphonic poem "Aus Bengalien," based on Bengalese folk music, from the short humor piece "The Life Drama of a Music Critic in Four Clippings," by Lawton MacKall. It first appeared in the July 1914 The Century magazine, and was reprinted in a 1922 collection of his work titled Bizarre.
The Gotham Symphony Orchestra plays the piece, including invented Bengalese instruments the bimbam, and a "one-toned flute."
