Gert Wilden

Gert Wilden (born Gert Wychodil; April 15, 1917 – September 10, 2015) was a German film composer. He was born in Mährisch Trübau.[1] From 1956 through his retirement, he scored music for 50 feature films in numerous genres. However, he is perhaps best known for his music for erotic films in the 1970s, especially the Schoolgirl Report (Schulmädchen Report) series.[2]

Wilden was married to former actress and singer Trude Hofmeister. Wilden died on September 10, 2015, aged 98.[3][4]
