Hans Gál was born just outside Vienna in 1890. His talent for music was first noticed by his aunt, Jenny Fleischer-Alt, who had sung under Richard Strauss in Weimar. With his aunt’s encouragement, Gál began studying piano with Richard Robert, one of the foremost teachers in Vienna at the time, whose students included Rudolf Serkin, Clara Haskil, and Georg Szell. Through Robert, Gál met, and subsequently studied with, Eusebius Mandyczewski who had been a member of Brahms’s closest circle of friends. Under the guidance of the eminent music historian, Guido Adler, Gál earned his doctorate from the University of Vienna in 1913. Gál was drafted into the army in 1915; however, he managed to find time to compose throughout the war. Works from this period include the Serbische Weisen (Serbian Dances) for piano duet, the First Quartet, and Der Arzt der Sobeide (Sobeide’s Doctor), Gál’s first opera. The opera’s successful première in Breslau in 1919 won Gál widespread recognition.
