In 1959/1960 he received his doctorate with the thesis on subjective difference tones of the highest audible tones and the adjacent ultrasound in musical hearing. In 1960/1961 and from 1963 to 1970 he was a research assistant at the Musicological Institute of the University of Cologne, where he was commissioned to set up a department for musical acoustics to research the acoustic and psychological foundations of music.

Since 1970 Fricke had a professorship at the University of Cologne and was head of the department for musical acoustics he founded.

Fricke is married and has two children.

Act

Fricke dealt with musical acoustics and systematic musicology . He coined the explanatory model of pulse shaping for the development of the timbre of wind instruments . Using this model, the electronic wind instruments Martinetta and Variophon were developed under his aegis at the Musicological Institute of the University of Cologne .

Fricke coined the term systemic musicology , which, compared to systematic musicology, still includes comparative musicology (also known as "ethnomusicology" or "ethnomusicology"). At the same time, he was interested in a new approach of interdisciplinarity and a departure from the concepts of absolute music in musicology: “As a human phenomenon, as a human means of expression, expression and communication, the phenomenon of music is ultimately only dependent on properties, possibilities and Goals of human beings from understanding. To work systemically means to consider this complex structure of influencing variables in its dynamic behavior. ”Fricke's other areas of work were music communication and the grammar of music .

His students include Wolfgang Auhagen , Roland Eberlein , Bernd Enders , Matthias Hornschuh , Christoph Reuter , Rudolf Wille and Rosemarie Tüpker .
