Born: 1927 — Giessen — Germany

Died:

German composer, laureate of the “Voya Toncitch Prize” International Piano Composition Contest in Paris, in 1987. Mr. Toncitch has premiered Reinhold Weber’s works for electronic sounds and piano ad libitum live entitled Water-Ghosts Choir and Glass-Figures Dance in Singapore, on March 11th, 1994 and the work entitled Duo for Piano and Electronic Sounds, also in Singapore, on March 24th, 1995, then played it in Australia, at the University of Queensland in Brisbane a few days later. According to Mr. Toncitch “Reinhold Weber in his electronic works obtains some huge and impressive instrumental and vocal orchestra colours with some very original dynamic graduations. In his Duo for Piano and Electronic Sounds, the piano part, which adopts a form of a toccata after an introduction presented by five-note-chords in lower and upper register, is later treated electronically. The initial piano part and electronic sounds form a duet of variations on toccata theme.”
