A Voice in the Night: the Musical Exodus from Central Europe
By 1930, composers of almost every field of music had made Berlin the musical centre of Europe. Particularly lively were the fields of light entertainment and cabaret, with music by composers such as Wilhelm Grosz , Mischa Spoliansky , Allan Gray , Nicholas Brodsky and Hans May. This golden age ended with the advent of the Nazis when many of the composers moved to London and worked in the British film and light music industries. Thomas Gayda explores this neglected repertoire. Producer Anthony Sellors
