Jobst Peter Fricke (born 5 September 1930) is a German musicologist and professor at the musicological institute of the University of Cologne.




Life


Born in Bielefeld, between 1952 and 1959 Fricke studied physics, musicology, psychology and Communication studies at the University of Göttingen, the University of Berlin and the University of Cologne. In 1959/1960 he obtained his doctorate with his work Über subjektive Differenztöne höchster hörbarer Töne und des angrenzenden Ultraschalls im musikalischen Hören. In 1960/1961 and from 1963 to 1970, he was Wissenschaftlicher Assistent at the Musicological Institute of the University of Cologne, where he had the task of establishing a department for musical acoustics to research the acoustic and psychological foundations of music. In 1969, once habilitated, also in Cologne, Fricke began to work on his thesis Intonation und musikalisches Hören.
Since 1970 Fricke had a professorship at the University of Cologne and was head of the department of musical acoustics which he had founded. Since 1972 he also had a teaching position for acoustics and music psychology at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln. In 1979/80 he held a substitute professorship at the University of Göttingen.




Career


Fricke was concerned with musical acoustics and systematic musicology. Thus he coined the explanatory model of pulse forming for the emergence of timbre of wind instruments. Based on this model, the electronic wind instruments martinetta (?) and variophon were developed under his aegis at the musicological institute of the University of Cologne.
Other areas of Fricke's work included music communication and the grammar of music. At the same time, he was concerned with a new approach of interdisciplinarity and a rejection of concepts of Absolute music in musicology: "As a human phenomenon, as a means of human expression, expression and communication, the phenomenon of music can ultimately only be understood from the point of view of the characteristics, possibilities and goals of the human being. To work systemically means to look at this complex structure of factors in its dynamic behaviour." Other areas of Fricke's work were the Musikkommunikation and the Grammatik der Musik.
Among his students are Wolfgang Auhagen, Roland Eberlein, Bernd Enders, Matthias Hornschuh, Christoph Reuter, Rudolf Wille and Rosemarie Tüpker.
