As a composer, he is, even if completely wrongly, only a lexicon term for most people, but as a composition teacher he remains the most important personality for many: Boris Blacher. His students at the University of the Arts are just as legendary (Huber, Yun and Crumb were chosen almost by chance) as is his openness to all compositional possibilities, because they depend on each other. In the 1960s he, who traditionally opened every post-war cultural institution in West Berlin with a specially composed brass fanfare, expanded his poetics to include electronic music and worked closely with the Electronic Studio of the TU Berlin. Yet another step, like all those from whom his students make their own footsteps and go their own way.
