Fišer, Luboš


(b Prague, 30 Sept 1935; d Prague, 22 June 1999). Czech composer. He studied at the Prague Conservatory (1952–6) with Bořkovec and at the Prague Academy of Musical Arts (1956–60) with Hlobil and Bořkovec. The first of his works to be publicly performed was Čtyři skladby (‘Four Pieces’) for violin and piano (1954); he took his diploma with the Second Symphony. After graduating he worked with the Vít Nejedlý Military Ensemble and his works were received with increasing approval. He won several Czech prizes as well as a UNESCO award for Patnáct listů podle Dürerovy Apokalypsy (‘15 Prints after Dürer’s Apocalypse’) in 1966 and the 1969 Italia Prize for his score for Peter Weigl’s film Bludiště moci (‘Labyrinth of Power’).

Having adopted a tonal, thematic style at the outset of his career, he began to employ contemporary techniques from the mid-1960s; works from this period display a tendency towards new expressive and compositional means, in particular the use of aleatory techniques. Melody, its repetition and modification, however, remained at the core of his music. In later works Fišer returned to determinate notation. Typical is the concentration on clearly defined contrasts within confined spaces, a principle most apparent in Fišer’s single-movement sonatas. His aesthetic is characterized by a broad range of interests: Nářek nad zkázou města Ur (‘Lament for the Destruction of the City of Ur’) is a setting of Sumerian texts, Písně pro slepého krále Jana Lucemburského (‘Songs for Blind King John of Luxemburg’) takes its inspiration from the Middle Ages, and other works draw on great works of art, or from theorists such as Galileo and Einstein. His works often have an air of celebration or warning.
