In this article I learnd: Milhaud "left Germany in 1939 and emigrated to America in 1940." The german version of this article - wich is much more detailed - does not mention a visit of Milhaud in Germany:

"Leben

... ... ...

1912 wird er mit dem Dichter Paul Claudel bekannt gemacht, mit dem ihn eine lebenslange Freundschaft und künstlerische Zusammenarbeit verbinden wird. Als Claudel 1916 als französischer Botschafter in die brasilianische Hauptstadt Rio de Janeiro entsandt wird, begleitet ihn Milhaud, vom Dienst im Ersten Weltkrieg befreit, als sein Attaché nach Südamerika. Dort lernt er die brasilianische Folklore und Popularmusik kennen, was seine Musik in den folgenden Jahren stark beeinflussen wird.

1918 kehrt er nach Frankreich zurück. Er hat Kontakt mit dem Kreis um Jean Cocteau und Erik Satie und gehört schließlich zur Groupe des Six. Seine Kompositionen bringen ihm erste Erfolge, aber auch Skandale ein.

1925 heiratet er seine Kusine Madeleine.

Nach Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkriegs emigriert Milhaud mit seiner Frau in die USA und wird am Mills College in Oakland Lehrer für Komposition (bis 1971). Nach Ende des Krieges leitet er zusätzlich auch eine Kompositionklasse am Konservatorium in Paris (bis 1972). Er unterrichtet in der folgenden Zeit jährlich wechselnd auf beiden Kontinenten. Seinen Unterricht besuchen so unterschiedliche Künstler wie der Jazzmusiker Dave Brubeck, der Minimalist Steve Reich, der Sinfoniker Allan Pettersson und die Avantgardisten Karlheinz Stockhausen und Iannis Xenakis.

..."

Ho can explain the diference?

I suppose, the english version intended to express, that the cause of Milhaud's emigration from France was Germany with it's begining world war II.

Yes: one dimension

but may be Milhaud felt the deadly peril of the Hitler-regime for all Jews in Europe.ko

Pronounciation

I seem to recall this is pronounced "mee-yo", but can't pull up an acceptible set of phonetic characters and am anyway not an expert in such matters. Could a native speaker or other authority put a phonetic pronounciation on the main page, so we don't have a generation talking about some character named "mill-hawd"? (Thanks...) -- Metahacker 03:55, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

the article also needs expanding

Jumping from 1922 to 1940 without mentioning ANYTHING is not doing Milhaud justice. If nobody else adds some more material, I'll try to get to this after I work on the Les Six article. Musikfabrik 12:30, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
