Igor Markevitch

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor_Markevitch

Igor Markevitch (Ukrainian: Ігор Маркевич, Ihor Markevych; July 27, 1912 – March 7, 1983) was a Ukrainian-born composer and conductor who later became both an Italian and a French citizen.

A great-great-grandfather Nykola Markevitch was a famous historian, ethnographer, composer and poet. A great-uncle, Andriy Markevitch was an activist, ethnographer, lawyer, philanthropist and musician. His maternal grandfather was well-known painter Ivan Pokhitonov (1850-1923), and a brother Dimitry Markevitch was a noted musicologist and cellist.

Тhe Ukrainian Markevitsch family originated 300 years ago from a common ancestor, whose ethnicity is disputed as either Jewish, Ukrainian, or Serbian.

Markevitch's first wife was Kyra Nijinska (1913/1914-1998), daughter of the great ballet dancer Vaslav Nijinsky. She bore him a son, Vaslav (b. 1936), before they divorced. His second wife was Donna Topazia Caetani (1921-1990), the only child of Don Michelangelo Caetani dei Duchi di Sermoneta and his wife, the former Cora Antinori, who ran the boutique of the Paris decorating firm Jansen. Their son, Oleg Caetani, was chief conductor and artistic director of the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra in Australia. Topazia also bore him two daughters, Allegra (b. 1950) and Nathalie (b. 1951), and another son, Timour (1960-1962).Toward the end of his life, Spanish pianist Carlota Garriga became his companion.
