For the 100th birthday

He was a composer, teacher, conductor and co-founder of the ensemble »die reihe«. As such and in many other facets of his work, Friedrich Cerha – was and still is – one of the defining figures of Austrian cultural life during the entire duration of the Second Republic: on his 100th birthday, the Wiener Konzerthaus pays tribute to him with a concert whose programme demonstrates not least how actively the composer, who died in 2023 just a few days before reaching the age of 97, was able to pursue his profession into old age. The evening's chamber music works, performed by high-calibre ensembles, largely represent his rich late oeuvre, in which Cerha often returned to the roots of musical modernism. With the »Ten Rubaijat of Omar Chajjam«, the Company of Music contributes a choral piece that illustrates Cerha's early interest in the culture of the Orient.
