WEINER, LEO (1885— ), Hungarian musical composer, was born in Budapest April 16, 1885, and studied in his native city, becoming a professor at the School of Music there in 1907. His works include orchestral works: Serenade (1906, awarded the Budapest Lipotvarosi Kaszino Prize), Carnival, Scherzo and accom panying music to a play by Michel Vorosmartz entitled Csongor es Tiinde ; chamber music : two string quartets (the second of which gained the Coolidge Prize in America, 1922), two sonatas for violin and pianoforte, and a ballad for clarinet and pianoforte (also for orchestra). Weiner's style is classical and he ignores
both the romantics and the ultra-modern school.
