Biographical History

Hans Moldenhauer (1906-1987) was an American musicologist of German birth, and a music collector. He graduated from the Musikhochschule in Mainz, where he was a pupil of Hans Rosbaud. In 1938 he emigrated to America and earned a B.A. (1945) at Whitworth College, Spokane, Washington and in 1951 received a D.F.A. in musicology at the Chicago Musical College of Roosevelt University. In 1942 he founded the Spokane Conservatory and was president from 1946. He taught at the University of Washington from 1961 to 1964. Moldenhauer gathered primary source materials relating to music, which became known as the "Moldenhauer Archives." He was the founder and director and the collection was originally located in Spokane. The Archives is now dispersed to various repositories around the world.
