Siegfried Köhler (March 2, 1927 in Meißen – July 14, 1984 in East Berlin) was a German composer in the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). During World War II, Köhler worked with a musicians group (Spielschar) within the Hitler Youth organisation. After the end of the war, the Soviet secret police NKVD arrested him and charged him with being a member of the Werwolf. He was detained at the infamous prison Speziallager Nr. 4 in Bautzen. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Siegfried+K%C3%B6h
