Rawicz and Landauer

They escaped Nazi Europe in 1935 and moved to the United Kingdom with their wives, becoming favourites of the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VIII).

[4] During World War II, like many people originally from mainland Europe, they found themselves considered potential enemies and were interned on the Isle of Man, Rawicz in Hutchinson Camp.

Richard Tauber, with whom they had performed in Vienna in the 1930s, invited them to join him on concert tours throughout the UK and as guests on his radio show.

[6] They transformed many popular classics into duets, sold tens of thousands of records and made regular BBC radio broadcasts.

Together, they wrote a number of derivative works for two pianos: They were the subjects of This Is Your Life in 1961 when they were surprised by Eamonn Andrews at the BBC Television Theatre.
