Jenő Zádor (5 November 1894 Bátaszék-4 April 1977 Hollywood, CA) was a Hungarian-born American composer. He studied at the Vienna Music Academy and in Leipzig with Max Reger. He taught from 1921 at the new Vienna City Conservatory and later at the Budapest Academy of Music. On the outbreak of World War II he emigrated to the USA, where he became a successful composer of film scores for Hollywood. He also wrote a number of operas in which the characterization and orchestration are worthy of note, and orchestral pieces in a style that owed something to Reger and Richard Strauss, including the popular Hungarian Caprice (1935) and concertos for such instruments as the cimbalom (1969) and accordion (1971).
