Bruno Liberda

Bruno Liberda (born 17 February 1953, in Mödling, Vienna) is an Austrian composer of contemporary classical music.

Liberda[1] started his academic and musical education when he was 16. He studied composition under Alfred Uhl at the Universität für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Wien. Later, he studied under Roman Haubenstock-Ramati, who became his most influential teacher and mentor.
He received several awards and scholarships in Europe & US. Today Liberda lectures electronic music at the Universität für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Wien.
His ballet Valse triste (1978) was the first composition of electronic music ever to be performed in the Staatsoper Wien. By combining traditional and electronic instruments, he explores the fascination of music as so aptly described by Józef Maria Hoene-Wroński: Music is the corporealisation of the intelligence that is in sound.
His scores are often the result of process-oriented, non-linear composing. Traditional notation, optical stimulation and integration of graphical & verbal description are key elements of his attempt to describe sound in a very direct way.[2]
