He was also known as Ernest Ferand and Ernst Ferand-Freund. Ferand was born in 1887 in Budapest, Hungary. He became interested in the methods of Émile Jaques-Dalcroze, and from 1925 to 1938 he taught at Dalcroze's Schule Hellerau-Laxenburg. In 1938 he published the influential treatise Die Improvisation in der Musik (Improvisation in Music). From 1939 until 1965 he was affiliated with the New School of Social Research. He wrote a number of articles which were published in The Musical Quarterly and the Journal of the American Musicological Society. Reviewing the English translation of Improvisation in Nine Centuries of Western Music, Peter Wishart described Ferand as "perhaps the most widely acknowledged authority on the subject [of improvisation in Western music.]" Ferand died on May 29, 1972, in Basel, Switzerland.(Quelle Wikipedia)
