Extractions: Main Ernst Krenek [Křenek] (born Aug 23, 1900; died Dec 22, 1991), Vienna-born Austrian (later American) composer and writer, of a Bohemian catholic family. Krenek studied counterpoint and composition with Franz Schreker in Vienna (1916-20) and Berlin (1920-), where he developed his own contrapuntal-atonal style with which he soon became an "enfant terrible" of modern music. Following the scandal-tainted performance of his Second Symphony in 1923, he lived in Switzerland until 1925, subsequently holding positions in the opera houses of Kassel and Wiesbaden, and returning to Vienna in 1928. His First String Quartet (1921) gained him a contract with Universal Edition, this resulting in the publication of his Symphonische Musik (comp and pubd 1922), his scenic cantata Die Zwingburg (1922, pubd 1923), operas Orpheus und Erydike and Der Sprung über Schatten (1923, pubd 1924), and other works, culminating in his jazz opera

Extractions: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Ernst Krenek (August 23, 1900 – December 22, 1991) was an Austrian and—from 1945— American composer . He explored atonality and other modern styles and wrote a number of books, including Music Here and Now (1939), a study of Johannes Ockeghem (1953), and Horizons Circled: Reflections on my Music (1974). Krenek wrote two pieces using the pseudonym Thornton Winsloe. Krenek was born in Vienna as the son of a Czech soldier in the Austro-Hungarian army. Throughout his life, however, he insisted that his name be written Krenek rather than his father's Křenek , and that it should be pronounced as a German word. He studied there and in Berlin with Franz Schreker before working in a number of German opera houses as conductor . During World War I , Krenek was drafted into the Austrian army, but he was stationed in Vienna, allowing him to go on with his musical studies. In 1922 he met Alma Mahler , wife of the late Gustav Mahler , and her daughter, Anna , whom he married in March 1924. That marriage ended in divorce before its first anniversary.
