Throughout
his career the Austrian
composer and musicologist
Hans Gal
(1890–1987) wrote a
number of operas,
orchestral works,
concertos and vocal
pieces, and during the
latter part of his life
he concentrated
particularly on chamber
music. In addition he
published books and
essays on composers such
as Brahms, Schubert and
Verdi. Forced to emigrate
from Germany in 1933, Gal
finally settled in
Edinburgh, where he
taught at the University,
and continued to compose
for the rest of his long
life.His Oboe Sonata is a
valuable addition to the
repertoire. The three
movements, like all
Gal’s works, are
rooted in the late
Romantic period.
