Besides
Ernst Krenek and the
Czech composer, Alois
Haba, Felix Petyrek
(1892-1951) was one the
most important pupils who
studied under Franz
Schreker in the latter's
early composition classes
in Vienna. In his Missa
phrygica, written in 1949
for four to eight voices
(it can be performed by a
choir with soloists/small
choir), Petyrek employs
elements of vocal
polyphony from the
Renaissance and early
Baroque in a very
personal, modern
contrapuntal fashion.
However, the brightness
of the splendid sonority
in both the Gloria and
Credo, obtained
essentially through the
use of chains of parallel
fifths, shows the
influence of his teacher,
Franz Schreker. Score
