Composers of various generations talk about their personal encounters with Friedrich Cerha’s monumental Spiegel cycle.
The series of concerts celebrating Friedrich Cerha's 95th birthday culminated in August: the monumental Spiegel cycle was performed at the Salzburg Festival by the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra under Ingo Metzmacher. We celebrate the anniversary with a collection of portrait articles, current links, and his video interview for the Stadtjournal wien.at.
Musicians who also express themselves in other artistic fields were at the centre of the Donaueschingen Festival 2014. A composer who many saw in a new light on this occasion is Friedrich Cerha.
