The case of the composer Hans Winterberg (1901–91) is a strange one – he may be the onl y composer to be banned by the Nazis and then disappear again fifty years later. He survived the Terezín concentration camp, where he had been interned as a Czech Jew, and after the War he settled in Munich as a German citizen, with his music enjoying a number of broadcasts. But after his death, his estate disappeared into the vaults of the Sudeten German Music Institute, where it was placed under embargo, emerging only in 2015 through the efforts of his grandson. This first album of his music reveals an unusual and individual voice, an idiosyncratic blend of Stravinsky, Janácek and Hindemith, with touches of Poulenc, often expressed with brittle humour and rhythmic verve.
