Karel Goeyvaerts (Antwerp 8 June 1923 - February 3, 1993, Antwerp) was a composer.
In 1951, Goeyvaerts attended the famous Darmstadt New Music Summer School where he met Karlheinz Stockhausen who was five years younger.
Goeyvaerts became very excited when he learned that Stockhausen was working with sine waves.
Reviews (749 words)
In Karel Goeyvaerts' vision of Utopia, 'Society' is represented scenically by groups of dancers and singing actors; the evolving structure he envisages is represented by the 'visible mutual relations' within these groups.
Goeyvaerts is a master in using the voice to its full advantage at all levels of its expressiveness and this, as in the case of the orchestra, without the use of experimental techniques.
Karel Goeyvaerts was himself unable to completely correct the manuscript for the publication of the score, vocal and orchestral material; after his sudden death on 3rd February 1993 this task was successfully completed by Mark De Smet, a great authority on and friend of Goeyvaerts'.
