Jürg Frey Jürg Frey was born in Aarau in 1953. After studying at the Conservatoire de Musique de Genève in Thomas Friedli's solo class, he began a career as a clarinettist. Later his composing activity became increasingly important. He was subsequently invited by various institutions to give workshops, lectures and retrospective events about his work. Spare to the point of vanishing, his works suspend fragile harmonies above stretches of percussive rustling and spells of silence. Frey has long been a cult figure in new-music circles, but he has been receiving more attention of late.
