contact back Karel Husa - Czech Contemporary Composer At a festive concert in Prague's Smetana Hall on February 13, 1990, which was broadcast by the nationwide radio and television networks, Karel Husa conducted the Czechoslovak premiere of his Music for Prague 1968, a composition that aptly spells out the author's feelings for his native city, voicing his protest against the invasion of Czechoslovakia by foreign troops in 1968 and the resulting Soviet occupation of the country. By the time of its Prague premiere, this opus had seen as many as seven thousand performances virtually all over the world. Karel Husa thus returned to Prague's concert life after more than forty years in exile. The belated premiere of his Music for Prague 1968 introduced Czech music lovers to his extensive and internationally renowned works. After the end of the Second World War Husa was admitted to the graduate school of the Prague Conservatoire, where he attended courses led by Jaroslav Ridky and graduated in 1947. At the same time, he decided to continue his studies of composition and conducting in Paris. Beginning in 1947 Arthur Honegger and Nadia Boulanger were Husa's composition teachers. He studied conducting with Jean Fournet, Eugene Bigot and Andre Cluytens. After finishing his courses in conducting at Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris and at Conservatoire de Musique de Paris, Karel Husa embarked on a career during which he has conducted the world's leading orchestras and participated in many major projects. He divided his time between composing and conducting, taking an ever more active part in Parisian and international musical life.

Husa, Karel (b. 1921) A native of Prague, Karel Husa studied also in Paris, notably with Honegger and Nadia Boulanger, later settling in the United States. His work as a composer was for some time limited by his distinguished career as a conductor. His musical language successfully combines contemporary harmonic idiom with a neo-classical attention to form and balance. His Music for Prague reflects his reaction to the suppression of newly developing freedom in Prague in 1968. Recommended Recording Fresque Symphony No. 2 Music for Prague, 1968 Marco Polo 8.223640

Karel Husa returns to the Cornell stage to celebrate his 75th birthday Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Karel Husa, the Kappa Alpha Professor of Music Emeritus, poses at the piano. Charles Harrington/University Photography By Darryl Geddes Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Karel Husa returns to the Cornell concert stage this Saturday for the first time since his retirement from Cornell in 1992. Husa will be a guest conductor at a concert celebrating his 75th birthday. The all-Husa program, to be performed by the Cornell Contemporary Directions Ensemble and the Cornell University Chamber Winds, under the direction of Professor Mark Scatterday, features Divertimento for Brass and Percussion Four Little Pieces for String Orchestra Al Fresco for Wind Ensemble (1975) and Fantasies for Chamber Orchestra (1957). The free performance begins at 8:15 p.m. in Barnes Hall. Husa's 75th birthday has taken almost six months to celebrate. In the United States, Husa has been an invited guest at performances of his work in several states. In Europe, Husa's 75th has been marked by all-Husa programs on radio networks in the Czech Republic, Croatia and Germany. Despite retiring from the faculty four years ago, Husa remains extremely active in music circles. He adds to his frequent-flyer miles regularly, attending performances of his work across the United States and Europe as an invited guest or as a guest conductor. He continues to get requests for commissions from symphony orchestras and bands, and there are some indications that a commission for an opera the one musical commission that has eluded Husa may be forthcoming from his homeland, the Czech Republic.

Home Composers Karel Husa Karel Husa - Composer Essay updated 31 July 1997 (an index of works mentioned in this essay appears at the end) Byron Adams In 1996, the musical world celebrated the 75th birthday of the great Czech-American composer Karel Husa. This happy event was a celebration rather than a valediction, however, as Husa continues to compose and conduct at the height of his powers. Husa, through his music, has reached a wide and ever-expanding audience without compromising either his aesthetic principles or his personal ideals. As his stylistic development remains dynamic rather than static, Husa's music turns its face radiantly towards the new while preserving and extending the finest traditions of modernism. Husa's creative strength derives from his uncompromising individuality and firmly held ethical beliefs. Despite the disruptions and dislocations caused by the intersection of his life with the political turbulence of our time, Husa has managed to create a large and distinguished body of music. His style is capable of assimilating and adapting such varied techniques as serialism, microtones, and aleatorism within a wide expressive range. Husa's humanitarian concerns are central to his music, which rises to great eloquence when protesting tyranny or mourning the victims of violence and cruelty. Husa came to understand the meaning of oppression early in life. Born in Prague on 7 August 1921, Husa was the son of an intelligent and enterprising merchant who provided a thorough education for Karel and his younger sister. While Husa's parents steered him towards a career as an engineer, they allowed their son to take lessons in music and painting as well.

Another well-known work, Apotheosis of this Earth is called by Husa a "manifesto" against pollution and destruction. Major orchestras have perfommed his works all over the world. Two works were commissioned by the New York Philharmonic: Concerto for Orchestra premiered by Zubin Mehta, and Concerto for Violin and Orchestra written for concertmaster Glen Dicterow and conducted by Kurt Masur; and the Concerto for Trumpet was commissioned by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Sir Georg Solti for performance in Chicago and on tour with principal trumpeter Adolph Herseth. Among his recent compositions are the String Quartet No. 4 (a commission for the Colorado Quartet), Cayuga Lake (for Ithaca College's centennial celebration), and Les couleurs fauves for wind ensemble (written for Northwestern University).
