Universal Edition mourns the death of Gladys Nordenstrom Krenek.

As Ernst Krenek’s ingenious partner, Gladys Nordenstrom Krenek tirelessly broke new ground for an appreciation of Krenek’s visions – in his spirit, but with the productive imagination of a strong personality.

Gladys Nordenstrom Krenek, herself a composer, died on 5 July in Palm Springs.

Antje Müller of the Ernst Krenek Institut Privatstiftung on Gladys Nordenstrom Krenek:

“A wonderful personality who actively participated with enormous expertise in the propagation of Ernst Krenek’s works, Gladys Nordenstrom Krenek was always friendly and charming up to the end. We will miss her!”
