About the composer Kurt Mederacke is unfortunately very little or nothing mentioned in the relevant music encyclopedias.
He is best known by his quintet "Bohemian Suite" op.43, which was published in 1948 in Leipzig publisher Hofmeister Today it is an integral part of the wind quintet literature.
Mederacke was born in 1910 in Leipzig. He received his training from 1927 to 1935 at the State Conservatory of Music in Leipzig. He first studied violin with Charles Munch, later majoring in bassoon with Prof. Carl Schaefer. In the 30 years up to around 1942, he was bassoonist in Chemnitz. In this period, two of his compositions were printed, New Germany-March of 1933, and Seaside opus 4 - a salon piece for piano or orchestra, which appeared in Leipzig Verlag Otto Gaumer.
After WW2, Hofmeister published a few volumes of orchestral studies for bassoon, edited by Kurt Mederacke.
Mederacke found a job as principal bassoonist in the Brunswick State Orchestra, and lived after his retirement in Braunlage in the Harz Mountains, where he died in 1983.
