Ignaz Brüll (Composer)

Born: 7th November 1846, Prostějov, Czech Republic

Died: 17th September 1907, Vienna, Austria

Nationality: Moravian

Ignaz Brüll was a Moravian-born pianist and composer who lived and worked in Vienna.

His operatic compositions included Das goldene Kreuz (The Golden Cross), which became a repertory work for several decades after its first production in 1875, but eventually fell into neglect after being banned by the Nazis because of Brüll's Jewish origins. He also wrote a small corpus of finely crafted works for the concert hall and recitals. Brüll's compositional style was lively but unabashedly conservative, in the vein of Mendelssohn and Schumann.

Brüll was also highly regarded as a sensitive concert pianist.
