Born in Karlsruhe in 1952, Wolfgang Rihm is one of the most highly regarded and most prolific composers of our time. With works encompassing a variety of genres - symphonies, operas, piano and chamber music - Rihm has developed a very personal expressive style that differs greatly from the avant-garde movements of the 1950s and 1960s.
