Full biography Jiři Hudec
Jiří Hudec was a Czech composer known for his contribution to classical music. Born in 1923 in Prague, Czech Republic, Hudec started his musical journey at a young age, studying at the Prague Conservatory and The Academy of Performing Arts in Prague. He was influenced by the works of classical composers such as Beethoven and Mozart.
During the post-World War II era, Hudec became increasingly interested in electronic music and started experimenting with different techniques. He used various electronic instruments, including tape recorders and synthesizers, to create unique soundscapes that were both innovative and experimental.
Hudec's compositions include orchestral, chamber, and vocal works. He was a prolific composer, and his music was performed at several renowned festivals, including the Warsaw Autumn and the ISCM World Music Days.
Apart from composing, Hudec was also a respected music educator, teaching at both the Prague Conservatory and The Academy of Performing Arts in Prague. He was also a member of the Czech Academy of Sciences.
Jiří Hudec passed away in 1996, but his contributions to classical music continue to influence and inspire musicians to this day. His experimental approach to music-making paved the way for several other composers to explore the possibilities of electronic music and bring new sounds and ideas to the world of classical music.
