description: "Joseph Yulyevich Achron, also seen as Akhron was a Russian composer and violinist, who settled in the United States. His preoccupation with Jewish elements and his desire to develop a \"Jewish\" harmonic and contrapuntal idiom, underscored and informed much of his work. His friend, the composer Arnold Schoenberg, described Achron in his obituary as \"one of the most underrated modern composers\"."
