Trio voor fluit, altviool en gitaar

Almost all Nico Richter’s surviving compositions date from his student days. Most of them are ultrashort, inspired by Webern and Berg. As a student of medicine, he directed the student orchestra MUSA. He joined the resistance, was arrested in 1942 and sent to work in successive concentration camps. A physical wreck, he dictated his final composition on his deathbed just after liberation. His talent never reached full maturity. by Dr. Julia Muller-van Santen Bertus van Lier Amsterdam, August 1935 location of manuscript: www.nederlandsmuziekinstituut.nl aanvraagnummer 326/006-1
