- Jonny_Heykens abstract "Jonny Heykens (24 September 1884 — 28 June 1945) was a Dutch composer of light classical music, remembered for his jaunty Ständchen (Serenade) No.1 Opus 21.Heykens was born at Groningen. He was taught violin by Eugene Ysaye at the Brussels Conservatory. He played in various orchestras before founding his own orchestra in Groningen in 1914. After the First World War he toured Europe and achieved great popularity, especially in Germany. Heykens composed pieces for his orchestra, plus songs and musical comedies. His records sold widely. During the Second World War Heykens repeatedly expressed his admiration for Adolf Hitlers Nazism and also outed his racist views about Jews and blacks in the Dutch/German press. He died in jail shortly after the war at Hilversum and was soon forgotten in the Netherlands.In Japan the Serenade became a popular song, and so it was selected in 1943 by NHK, The Broadcasting Corporation of Japan, as the signature tune of "The Evening Show for the Front Line", a radio programme to entertain serving Japanese soldiers and sailors.[citation needed] After WWII, Japan National Railways (JNR) chose part of the serenade for use in its passenger cars. It is still used on some of Japan Railway (JR) trains.[citation needed]Heykens' Serenade was also used durning the 1940s, by Albert Sandler as the signature tune for the BBC Sunday evening radio programme "The Palm Court Orchestra at the Grand Hotel."[citation needed]In Germany, Heykens Serenade is the music to Loriots comedy sketch "Schmeckt's?"[citation needed]".
