Dieter Feichtner (1943-1999) was definitely one of the most extraordinary musicians on the synthesizer ever since. Improvisation was his natural element. Not only did he deeply understand the nature of electronic sounds, he also was an excellent keyboard player. Many people still remember his concerts with musicians like John Surman, Barre Phillips and many others, or his stylistic parodies, spontanous sketches, unpredictable stories and actions (sometimes a horror for concert organizers and club owners). Beyond that he was engaged with his life's work for more than twenty years: direct solo recordings, in which he brought improvisation to a high architectonical and symphonic level, building the bridge between folkloristic elements and experimental forms with ease.
