| | Alois Haba - Czech Contemporary Composer |
 | | Haba anchors this musicality inspirationally and musically in his striking native region of Moravian Wallachia, in the songs of which archaic manners of interpretation including singing in microintervals have been retained. |
 | | Haba is so far the only composer to have written microtonal compositions on a melodic-harmonic base, in all forms of modern music and for the most varied instrumental and vocal content. |
 | | Haba introduced these microtonal systems into music both practically and theoretically, tying up independently with the first tentative compositional and theoretical quarter-tone attempts of Stein, Moellendorf and Mager. |
