Have you ever listened to music by Robert Kanh? Probably not. He was born in 1865 as a talented son to incredibly wealthy Jewish parents. At a young age he was already quite successful with his compositions. He was admired by Clara Schumann,Joseph Joachim, and Brahms. He taught Arthur Rubinstein and Wilhelm Kempf. When the Nazis prohibited his music, he fled to England in 1939. There he composed a lot of music in the late romantic style. After he passed away in 1951 his music faded into obscurity.
