Jörg Duda (born 17 December 1968 in Munich) is a German composer of classical music.

Professional career

Duda was influenced by the church music of Scheyern Abbey. He took lessons in organ and improvisation with Harald Feller, in theory and composition with Dieter Acker. From 1988 to 1992 he studied church music at the Musikhochschule München. He studied choral conducting with Roderich Kreile and was a member in his choir Junge Kantorei München. He played organ concerts and worked as a Korrepetitor for the choir of the Bayerischer Rundfunk and the Philharmonischer Chor München. From 1992 Duda studied composition with Peter Kiesewetter at the Musikhochschule Hannover and continued with Dieter Acker in Munich, completing the "Meisterklasse" in 1997.[1]

Since 1998 Duda has been Kantor of St Emmeram in Geisenfeld. He taught at times music theory at the Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. Duda co-founded the Münchner Harmoniemusik and the piano quintet Cumulus. In 2007 he was awarded the Kulturförderpreis (culture prize) of Geisenfeld.[1]

Duda composed especially in the fields of organ music, sacred choral music, chamber music for wind instruments and solo concertos. He has been inspired by Finnish authors and singers, such as Pirjo Honkanen, Lassi Nummi and Johann Tilli. His works are often commissioned by performers. He has collaborated with the chamber choir novAntica, alumni of the Musikhochschule München, who premiered in 1995 his Pater Noster for two mixed choirs.[2] His motet Friede über Israel was commissioned and recorded in 2000 by Roderich Kreile and the Dresdner Kreuzchor.[3] Duda composed four Finnish Quartets, each for a woodwind instrument and a string trio. The first was commissioned by bassoonist Lyndon Watts, premiered by him in 2001[4] and played again in Munich on 14 March 2011, together with the premiere of Bernd Redmann's Migrant and with the Basson Quintet of Graham Waterhouse.[5] Duda's tuba concerto was composed for Andreas Hofmeir and premiered by him in Ingolstadt on 23 October 2010.[6]

As a performer, he has promoted the works of local Geisenfeld composers such as Johann Feldmayr (1573–1635) and Johann Kyrzinger (1580?–1624).[7]
