Fantasie for Flute and Piano, Op55
Fantasie for Flute and Piano, Op55
Carl Frühling: Fantasie for Flute and Piano, Op 55 originally composed in the late 1920s for flute and orchestra (the original instrumentation hasn't survived), and premiered in Vienna in 1929 by the flautist Friedrich Schonfeld. The current edition was made by Emily Beynon who re-discovered it from the materials in Vienna library.
In the 1920s Frühling was mostly known as a piano teacher and accompanist, working with many acclaimed violinists like B. Huberman, and P. Sarasate. As a composer, he was greatly influenced by Brahms. Even though his earlier works were mostly salon pieces for piano, his latest re-discovered compositions are prised for his romantic, Brahm's composition style.

Frühling Carl
Carl Frühling (1868-1937) was an Austrian pianist and composer. Born in Lemberg (now Lviv, Ukraine) he studied piano at the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Vienna and won the Liszt Prize in 1889. Later he worked as a piano teacher and accompanist, working with many acclaimed violinists like B.Huberman, P. Sarasate and collaborating with Arnold Rose (and G.Mahler's brother-in-law.), the leader of the Rosé Quartet and the Vienna Philharmonic. Even though he met J. Brahms and was greatly influenced by his works, his earlier compositions were mostly salon pieces for piano. Later he composed the Piano Quintet which even was published in 1892, yet his music couldn't get deserved recognition until 1992 when he was gradually rediscovered and praised for his romantic, Brahm's composition style.
Overall Frühling has composed piano concerto, several orchestral works, choral music and piano works. Many of these works were never published during his lifetime. He led his last years in poverty, forced by Nazi-run Austrian authorities to be registered as a Jew.
