Richard Maunder

Charles Richard Francis Maunder (born November 23, 1937 in Portsmouth ) - in his mathematical publications CRF Maunder - is a British mathematician and musicologist.

Career

Maunder received his PhD in mathematics from the University of Cambridge under JF Adams in 1962 with a dissertation on cohomology operations. After a stay at the University of Southampton , he became a fellow at Christ's College , Cambridge in 1964 .

Maunder's field of work is algebraic topology . He used Postnikov systems to give an alternative construction of the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence . With this construction, the differentials can be better described. The family of higher cohomology operations on Mod-2 cohomology he constructed has been discussed by several authors. In 1981, he had a short proof of the set of Kan-Thurston , after which it each path-connected topological space a discrete group is such that there is a homology - isomorphism from Eilenberg-MacLane space to exist. His textbook Algebraic Topology (1970) is still widely used in the Dover 1996 edition. ${\displaystyle X}$ ${\displaystyle \pi }$ ${\displaystyle K(\pi ,1)}$ ${\displaystyle X}$

Musicology

Maunder created a new version of Mozart's Requiem . Following other musicologists such as Ernst Hess , Franz Beyer and Robert D. Levin, he presented a fundamental revision of Mozart's last work in which, like his predecessors, he wanted to remove Süßmayr's additions as far as possible and replace them with Mozart's own ideas. This new version was recorded in 1983 by Christopher Hogwood with the Academy of Ancient Music and was printed in 1988. In 1992 it was recorded by Rupert Gottfried Frieberger .

In doing so, Maunder Süßmayr's Sanctus and Benedictus completely and removed from the work, only the Agnus Dei he considered authentic based on its comparisons with other church music works by Mozart. Maunder also composed an Amen fugue for the conclusion of Lacrimosa , for which he took Mozart's sketch sheet and a fugue for organ roller by Mozart (KV 608) as a starting point. Furthermore, he fundamentally revised Süßmayr's instrumentation in the entire Requiem.

This version was performed several times in German-speaking countries, including a. in the choreography Requiem! by Birgit Scherzer .

In 1990 Maunder's edition of Mozart's C minor Mass was published . This was recorded in 2005 by Paul McCreesh .
