László Dubrovay

László Dubrovay is a Hungarian composer, born in Budapest in 1943. He studied composition at the Ferenc Liszt Academy of Music with Ferenc Szabó and Imre Vincze, and in the 1970s he became one of the first Hungarian composers to work seriously with electronic sound, after studying with Karlheinz Stockhausen in West Germany. Dubrovay held a DAAD scholarship from 1972 to 1974, studying with Stockhausen and taking electronic music courses with Hans-Ulrich Humpert. His piece Sóhaj (Sigh) was commissioned by WDR and realised in its Cologne electronic studio.
