Like Korngold, Toch, Schoenberg, Zeisl and Zemlinsky, Richard Stöhr (18741967) was another Austrian composer driven into American exile by the Nazis. His generous output of music includes seven symphonies, much chamber music, songs, and choral and piano pieces. It is being rediscovered at last in a series of Toccata Classics recordings; this is the third. Fanfare described Volume Two as 'simply gorgeous music'. The first two of his fifteen violin sonatas offer a seamless outpouring of fin de siècle Viennese lyricism, with one good tune following another, in a style somewhere between Brahms and Korngold.
