About

Kuhr: Studied composition with Josef Friedrich Doppelbauer and Hans Werner Henze. He worked as a coach at the Cologne Opera and at the Graz Opera. 1988 saw the world premiere of his opera Stallerhof followed by Tod und Teufel in 1999.

Resch: He studied composition and musicology at Musikhochschule Köln. His works have been widely performed around Europe, including the Salzburg Festival.

Zykan: Born in Vienna in 1935, died in 2006. His early career saw him join the Vienna Boys’ Choir, later he studied piano and composition. 1966 saw his breakthrough as a composer with the opera Singers Nähmaschine ist die beste. As Zykan regarded music as a personal concern that “can only be executed personally i.e. directly” and felt “unable to publish works”, many of his compositions written prior to 1994 have been lost or discarded.
