!!!Lampersberg, Gerhard eigentlich G. Lampersberger

b. Hermagor (Carinthia), July 5, 1928, composer. Follows the 
principles of the free, extended twelve-tone technique in the 
tradition of A.  Webern. Supported Austrian authors (C.  Lavant, T.  
Bernhard, P.  Turrini) during the 1950s and 1960s. Was described in 
the roman à clef "Holzfaellen" (1984) by T. Bernhard and 
procured a provisional injunction against the sale of this novel; his 
"Tonhof" in Maria Saal (Carinthia) became an important meeting place 
for artists.
