Br�ll wrote over 100 works for solo piano, many orchestral and chamber works and numerous operas. Sadly, nearly all his works have been ignored by the music establishment for more than a century, and the public have been denied access to Br�ll's qualities which were so evident to Brahms. Eve n his close friendship with Brahms could not save him from the anti-Semitism being fuelled by Wagner and Liszt during the 19th century. Hitler idolised Wagner, and he ordered that music scores of Jewish composers be found and burnt. Fortunately for us, many of them were well hidden. Br�ll deserves perhaps to be positioned alongside his friends Mahler and Schumann, and the closest of all, Johannes Brahms.
