As a companion of Hans Werner Henze since 1962, he worked tirelessly on behalf of the composer and, beyond that, all creatives in music.
After Henze's death, he was the mainstay of the foundation with his expertise and foresight.
In his old age, he still held his protective hand over us as Honorary Chairman.
In Reinhold Kreile we have lost a highly committed, profound music expert, a political visionary and, above all, a close friend.
In deep mourning:
Head of Foundation council: Prof. Dr. Peter Ruzicka, Hamburg
Prof. Dr. Antje Tumat, Detmold
Johannes Debus, Toronto and Berlin
Dr. Michael Kerstan, Nuremberg (CEO)
