About Univ. Prof. Dr. Erich Moritz (von) Hornbostel

Peter Hornbostel (son of Erich's son Johann) cultivated the acquaintance of "Uncle Theodore" Hornbostel, who lived in Gmunden, Austria in 1970. It is not clear whether Theodore was the uncle of Johann, Erich, or someone else. The family lore, via Peter, is that "Uncle Theodore" was born "von Hornbostel" but dropped the "von".
