Egon Wellesz (1885-1974) first composed operas and ballets which were performed to high acclaim in his native Vienna. In 1938, forced to escape Nazi’s, he fled to England and to Oxford, where he was professor of Byzantine music at the university until his death in 1974. Wellesz’s chamber music is heavily influenced by that of Haydn and Beethoven and so make a fitting coupling on this enthralling release.
