Ernst Heinrich Schliepe (Darkehmen, 25 May 1893 – Berlin, 10 April 1961)[1] was a German composer and conductor.
The son of a veterinarian, Schliepe studied music in Königsberg, Bonn, and Berlin. From 1921 he was engaged as a music critic for various publications in Berlin. He joined the NSDAP in 1932 and was active in cultural campaigns, notably the boycotting of Paul Hindemith.[2] After the war, his works were prohibited from public performance.[2]
