Wilhelm Grosz (1894-1939), whose estate has been housed at the Exile Art Center of the mdw - University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna since 2018, performed in the grand concert halls of Vienna, the vibrant Berlin of the 1920s, and later in exile in London and New York. Over the course of his career, Grosz moved between the modernist aesthetics of Neue Sachlichkeit, early jazz influences in art music, and popular music. Political upheavals forced him into exile in 1933, where he continued his career in popular music, composing hits such as Isle of Capri. Drawing on his correspondence with his long-standing publisher, the Wiener Universal Edition, and entries from Arthur Schnitzler's diary, this publication provides a vivid account of Grosz's artistic networks, the debates of his time, and the multifaceted scope of his oeuvre-from his 'serious' music to international popular successes in exile. From 1920s Vienna to Exile - The Forgotten Career of Wilhelm Grosz
