His mother, the soprano Louise Rose, also joined the Oberlin faculty that year as a voice teacher. Toth senior has also taught at Oberlin.

In 1982, Toth formed the Oberlin Trio with Emeritus Professor of Pianoforte Joseph Schwartz and former violin faculty member Stephen Clapp. Prior to joining Oberlin's faculty Toth taught at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. He was a soloist with the Joffrey Ballet and the Houston Symphony; when he joined the San Francisco Symphony at the age of 20, he was their youngest member. He served frequently as an adjudicator for international competitions, including the 11th Tchaikovsky Competition.  —Oberlin Conservatory Magazine 2003
