Jacob Scharff (born October 26, 1908, Oslo; died 1942, Auschwitz) was a Norwegian violinist and composer known for his tango compositions, notably 'Skjønne Sorina.' He was influenced by the vibrant music scene in Hønefoss and studied under Leif Halvorsen. Scharff performed extensively, and although he began as a store partner in 1935, his musical talents gained recognition. Tragically, he was arrested by the Nazi Stapo and murdered in Auschwitz during World War II, along with several family members.
