	Music Associates of America ~ MadAminA! Karel Husa
		Karel Husa is a gentle, mild-mannered, sometimes self-deprecating man who inspires people to give of themselves.
		Husa points out that he has always been fascinated by winds; that he is a great Berlioz enthusiast; and that he would have written a piece for winds sooner, had he been asked to do so.
		Husa believes that his music, and especially the music in the larger media such as orchestra, band, and chorus, is accessible to large lay audiences and not limited to in-groups of sophisticated initiates.

	Karel Husa - Czech Contempoprary Composer
		Karel Husa was born in Prague on August 7, 1921.
		Karel Husa's arrival in the United States began a new and immensely prolific chapter in his artistic career.
		Indeed, this polarization of Karel Husa's works - an oscillation towards excellence, towards music of the highest aspiration on the one hand and an inclination to compose what is called Gebrauchsmusik, mentioned in connection with his Paris stay, appears to be a hallmark of his art, which has been steadily applied and promoted.

		CD Baby is thrilled to bring your attention to a stunning classical disc, featuring the music of Karel Husa expertly performed by the Fine Arts Quartet and The Long Island Chamber Ensemble.
		The quartet, having worked closely with Husa and having won his praise, commissioned the third quartet which went on to win the Pulitzer Prize in 1969.
		Both of these quartets are no small feast for the listener's ear as they both push the internal, emotional experience into raw, gutsy and sharp-edged landscapes, colored with a brittle acidity and motivated by an unforgiving, relentless drive.
