Julius Ansco Bruinier (7 November 1898 – 6 February 1972) was a German musician in the Berlin Jazz / Dance music band, known as the Weintraub's Syncopators.
Other reviews in which they took part during the later 1920s were "Was Sie wollen" ("What you want") by Marcellus Schiffer and "Das bist Du" ("That's you"), with music by Friedrich Hollaender.
In 1928 Ansco Bruinier was part of a Weintraub's Syncopators tour of Germany which included a show with Kate Kühl at the Großer Feldberg "Feldberghaus" venue.
In September 1928 Bruinier temporarily left the band in order to complete his studies, emerging a year later with an engineering degree.
Despite the degree, however, as a foreign national during the unemployment surge that accompanied the Great Depression he was unable to find employment as an engineer, and he rejoined Weintraub's Syncopators at the end of 1929.
[6] Bruinier's biographer, Horst Bergmeier, writes that his remarkable whistling performances always attracted prominent reporting in the press.
