Bernardo Kuczer Biography

Bernardo Mario Kuczer was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on 30 April 1955. Until his early twenties, he was involved in rock music as composer and guitarist, writing also music for the theatre. Simultaneously, he studied architecture and graduated in 1978.

Bernardo Mario Kuczer (born 30 April 1955) is an Argentinian composer, music theoretician and architect.

In 1979 he presented a thesis under the supervision of Sergio Hualpa with own ideas about “the Basic Components of Music, their multiple interrelations and a special kind of “energy” generated by their uni- and multidimensional dynamic interactions, an energy which determines and enables the micro and macro Articulation of the Music-stream”. The thesis was first named: “La forma natural de la música” (“The natural ways of music”), then “The New Connections” and later “Música sin el Factor Humano” (“Music without the Human Factor”).

In 1980, Kuczer went to London to study the viola da gamba, abandoning it shortly after for starting composition.

… the real revelation of this disc is Argentinian Bernardo Maria Kuczer, whose “even … The loudest sky!!” is one of the wildest things I’ve heard for some time. Brilliantly written (fiendishly difficult) and played with utter conviction, it makes you wonder what Kuczer’s been up to since he wrote this back in 1981. Anything new by either Kuczer or [the saxophone ensemble] Xasax is welcome here.

More than 60 of his works have remained unperformed (and mostly unrevealed). Several of his instrumental pieces were and/or are still considered unplayable. His Saxophone Quartet (1981) was first regarded as unplayable until 1994, when it was given its first performance. Some of his works have been played and broadcast in various European cities and elsewhere.

His first ensemble piece (“Even … the loudest sky”) (1981) for saxophone quartet, was selected by the British SPNM (Society for the Promotion of New Music) for the “composers’ week-end”, London 1981.

Kuczer arrived in Freiburg in 1983 to study composition with Brian Ferneyhough. He felt however very soon the need to continue his way in music alone.

The Belgian musicologist Harry Halbreich wrote a review about the Darmstadt International Summer Courses of New Music 1984, published in the monthly magazine Le Monde de la musique:

In 1984 he was invited to participate of the “International Summer Courses for New Music” at Darmstadt, where several pieces of his tape-cycle Civilización o Barbarie received a first performance and where he was awarded, as first Latin American composer, the “Kranichsteiner Musikpreis” (Kranichstein Music Prize).

In 1986, for the next edition of the Darmstadt Courses, he was invited to perform a second concert with works of his tape-cycle.

Civilización o Barbarie was later selected, as personal choice of the jury, by Klaus Huber (one of the three jurors), for the “World Music Days” of the ISCM (International Society for Contemporary Music) held in 1987 in Cologne.

During 1990 he was a stipendiary of the “Heinrich-Strobel-Stiftung” (Heinrich Strobel Foundation) of the broadcasting service Südwestrundfunk.

On the 2 May 1996, Fara C. wrote in the world music magazine World:

After 1999 he remained apart and distant to the active music and concert scene.

Since 2000, he has been working extensively with computers, designing, writing and developing his own computer programs. These programs, which are based on and are used to further research his personal hypotheses, models and theoretical ideas about harmony, rhythm, sound, musical form and “Music-Stream”, have also been used to generate his latest digital works.
