July 1 - Hans Werner Henze (The Musical Birthday Series)

Hans Werner Henze (1 July 1926 – 27 October 2012) was an important German composer of the mid/late 20th century.

Paradox

Hans Werner Henze, decidedly Red,

    Supported the cause of the Masses.

But his music appeals to the moneyed well-bred

    And not Proletarian classes.
