Timeline

1928

Bengt Hambraeus (Stockholm, Sweden, January 29, 1928 – Glen Roy, Ontario, (in Glengarry County), near Montreal, Quebec, Canada, September 21, 2000) was a Swedish-Canadian organist, composer and musicologist.

1956

Hambreaus studied organ with Alf Linder and musicology with Carl-Allan Moberg, earning his doctorate in 1956 on a thesis about medieval musical notation.

1957

From 1957 to 1972 he worked at the music department of the Swedish Radio, eventually holding executive and producer posts, and during this time became a very high-profile emissary of new music in Sweden, encouraging discussion of new musical forms, a renewal of organ music with new tonal/technical concepts and the integration of performance art, improvisation, live electronics and stereo/spatial effects into traditional concert performing.

He was also a prolific composer.

1967

He was elected into the Royal Swedish Academy of Music in 1967 and received the Swedish Royal Medal Litteris et Artibus in 1986.

Hambraeus wrote music for a large number of instruments, but he is perhaps best known for his organ works.

Together with Mauricio Kagel and György Ligeti he was among the first to use high modernist compositional methods to compose organ music.

Limelight Records released his Constellations and Interferences on LP.

1972

In 1972 he became professor of composition at McGill University, Montreal and he remained in Canada until his death in 2000.

Among his notable pupils are composer Peter Allen and pianist Richard Hunt.
