Ernst Toch - Symphonies, vol 2 - A Francis, Berlin RSO (2002) [Philidor; FLAC]

Ernst Toch was an extremely sought after composer in Central Europe until WWII began, sending him out of country and into semi-obscurity. He continued to get commissions, but had to teach to make ends meet for a long time. Eventually, after a heart attack, he gave up his university post and devoted himself fulltime to composition once more. His symphonies date from this latter period. This release includes the Second and Third Symphonies. The performances are decent, and the music far more so.

A bio of Toch is enclosed. You can search on Philidor for all my classical downloads, or check out this thread:
