Life
Snoeck was a long-time violinist and concertmaster of the Munich Philharmonic . He also appeared as a soloist several times - as in January 1930 when Siegfried Wagner's fairy tale collage was performed. under the direction of Karl Böhm - or as a conductor.
He and his first violinist Josef Lengsfeld were the only two Jews in the orchestra and were therefore dismissed in April 1938 "for racial reasons". In March 1934 he and Lengsfeld had already been dismissed from the Bad Kissinger Kurorchester , which at that time consisted of musicians from the Munich Philharmonic. In Bad Kissingen he had worked as concertmaster since 1919 during the summer months.
After his release in April 1938, Snoeck had to do heavy labor in road construction as a camp inmate. Immediately after the Second World War , Snoeck returned to the Munich concert stage and also appeared twice as a soloist in Bad Kissingen.
