sustained success eluded baußnern during his life, and many of his compositions (for example, all of his symphonies) were never published. research into baußnern work remains in its infancy, but a baußnern society (baußnern-gesellschaft), founded by german composer dietrich von bausznern (1920–1980), baußnern's grandson, seeks to promote awareness of his life's work. current chair of the society is angela gehann-dernbach.
