KORNGOLD & ZEISL

“EXODUS” is the title of the latest recording from Johannes Fleischmann. In their review of the album, Fono Forum enthused over a “very carefully designed programme” and “an impressive capacity for stylistic empathy, supported by undoubted dedication”. In this recording the violinist, together with the pianist Magda Amara and baritone Günter Haumer, interprets music by Erich Wolfgang Korngold and Eric Zeisl. These Viennese composers escaped Nazism by emigrating to the USA. They became major figures in Hollywood during the golden age of film music. This is the first time that the full CD programme has been performed live, and it is taking place right here in Vienna.
