Life


Born in Vienna, Neuwirth comes from a musical family; the pianist Harald Neuwirth is his brother, whose daughter Olga Neuwirth is a composer.[1] He received instruction in violin and piano starting in 1944.[1] He studied composition with Karl Schiske at the Wiener Musikakademie, and music and theatre at the University of Vienna.[1] His dissertation topic in musicology, Anton Webern, was not accepted.[2][3] After a brief period as a journalist at the Neue Zeit [de] in Graz, he continued his studies from 1963 at the Free University of Berlin with Adam Adrio.[3] In 1968 he received his doctorate in Berlin with a dissertation on harmony in Schreker's Der ferne Klang (Die Harmonik in der Oper "Der ferne Klang" von Franz Schreker).[4]

From 1968 to 1970, Neuwirth worked in the Mendelssohn-Archiv of the Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz and from 1970 to 1972 was affiliated with the Schönberg-Gesamtausgabe initiative.[1] From 1973 to 1982, Neuwirth headed the electronic studio of the Musikhochschule Graz and lectured on music history at both the Musikhochschule and the University of Graz.[1] From 1982 to 2000 he was a professor of music theory at the Universität der Künste Berlin.[1] Since 2009 he has been an honorary professor at the University of Freiburg.[5]

Numerous renowned composers, including Bernhard Lang, Peter Ablinger, Georg Friedrich Haas, Arnulf Herrmann, Isabel Mundry, Hanspeter Kyburz, Orm Finnendahl, Enno Poppe and Oliver Korte, are among his students.[6] For his 70th birthday, the 2007 Styriarte festival organized a tribute with his and Schreker's works.[3] On the occasion of his 80th birthday, the Society of Friends of Music in Donaueschingen (Germany) organized a concert with works by Neuwirth as well as his teacher Karl Schiske and his students Peter Ablinger and Martin Kapeller.[6]
