Gunter
Habicht composed music
for folk instruments and
contributions to
educational literature as
well as works for wind
orchestra, chamber and
orchestral music,
including the
Sinfonietta, published in
1964 by VEB Breitkopf &
Hartel Musikverlag
Leipzig, and the
award-winning Quartettino
1969 for wind
instruments, created for
a composition contest
organized by the
Association of Composers
and Musicologists on the
occasion of the GDR's
20th anniversary. With an
easy piano accompaniment,
the sonatina for clarinet
and piano Temperaments,
written in the same year,
is particularly aimed at
more advanced music
students and amateur
musicians. Each of the
three movements
represents one
temperament (1. sanguine
type, 2. melancholic
type, 3. choleric type)
that needs to be worked
out during the
rehearsals. From 1935 to
1939, Gunter Habicht
(1916-2010) studied with
Herbert Viecenz and Boris
Blacher (music theory and
composition) and with
Walther Meyer-Giesow and
Ernst Hintze (conducting)
at the Dresden
Conservatory. In 1951,
Gunter Habicht taught at
an elementary school in
Leipzig, and in 1952, he
was appointed specialist
lecturer for music at the
Zentralhaus fur
Volkskunst. From 1955 to
1981, he was a teacher of
music theory and clarinet
at the Leipzig City Music
School.
